Based on the total length of the boom, the boom head deflection, the boom head rotation angle, and the hinge distance between the boom root hinge point and the support hinge point of the luffing cylinder, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined. The axial position-deflection relationship represents the relationship between the axial position of the boom and the deflection corresponding to the axial position of the boom. Based on the boom axial position-deflection relationship, determine the target deflection corresponding to the target boom axial position.

[0006] In this embodiment of the application, obtaining the lateral force of the boom head lifting load includes: obtaining the boom elevation angle, the lifting weight, and the boom root stiffness of the boom; determining the lateral force of the hook lifting load based on the boom elevation angle and the lifting weight; and determining the lateral force of the boom head lifting load based on the boom root stiffness and the hook lifting lateral force.

[0007] In this embodiment of the application, determining the lateral force of the hook load based on the boom elevation angle and the load weight includes determining the lateral force of the hook load according to the following formula:

[0008] in, F 1 represents the load weight, and θ represents the boom elevation angle. q 1 represents the lateral force of the hook lifting load.

[0009] In this embodiment of the application, the crane includes a boom head, an upper head pulley located at the top of the boom head, a lower head pulley located at the bottom of the boom head, and a hoisting wire rope. Obtaining the boom head torque includes: Obtain the boom elevation angle, the load weight, the wire rope tension, the first distance between the head pulley and the center line of the boom head, the second distance between the head pulley and the center line of the boom head, and the boom root stiffness. Determine the moment along the centerline of the boom head based on the load weight, boom elevation angle, first spacing, wire rope tension, and second spacing; The boom head moment is determined based on the boom head centerline moment and the boom root stiffness.

[0010] In this embodiment of the application, the determination of the boom centerline moment based on the lifting load, boom elevation angle, first spacing, wire rope tension, and second spacing includes:

[0011] in, F 1 represents the load weight, and θ represents the boom elevation angle. d 1 represents the first spacing. F2 For the tension of the steel wire rope, d 2 represents the second spacing. rm 1 represents the moment along the centerline of the boom head.

[0012] In this embodiment of the application, the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle are determined based on the boom head lateral force, boom head moment, pre-acquired boom head elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired boom head geometric stiffness matrix, including the following formulas:

[0013] in, Here is the elastic stiffness matrix of the arm head. Here is the geometric stiffness matrix of the arm head. wn For arm head deflection, zn For the arm head corner, q For the lateral force of the boom head lifting load, rm This is the moment at the head of the arm.

[0014] In this embodiment, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined by the following formula based on the total length of the boom, the boom head deflection, the boom head rotation angle, and the hinge point distance between the boom root hinge point and the support hinge point of the luffing cylinder: v (x ) =ax³ + bx² + cx

[0015]

[0016]

[0017] in, x This refers to the axial position of the boom. This represents the deflection corresponding to the axial position x of the boom. lp The distance between the hinge points. l This is the total length of the boom. wn For arm head deflection, rm This is the moment at the head of the arm.

[0018] A second aspect of this application provides an apparatus for determining crane deflection, comprising: a memory configured to store instructions; and a processor configured to retrieve instructions from the memory and, when executing the instructions, to implement the method described above for determining crane boom deflection. A third aspect of this application provides a machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that cause a machine to perform the aforementioned method for determining the deflection of a crane boom.

Based on the lateral force, moment, pre-acquired elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired geometric stiffness matrix of the boom head, the boom head deflection and rotation angle are determined. Combining the elastic and geometric stiffness matrices makes the calculations of boom head deflection and rotation angle more closely reflect actual working conditions, directly outputting the boom head deflection and rotation angle, clarifying the deformation state of the boom's foremost edge, and providing crucial starting point data for subsequent overall deflection analysis. Based on the total boom length, boom head deflection, boom head rotation angle, and the distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined. Therefore, this application introduces structural parameters such as the distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point, extending the local deformation of the boom head to the entire axial range of the boom, allowing users to understand the deflection distribution at any axial position of the boom (rather than just knowing a single point at the boom head). Furthermore, this application can determine the target deflection corresponding to the target axial position of the boom based on the corresponding axial position-deflection relationship. Therefore, this application first obtains the lateral force of the lifting load on the boom head and the corresponding boom head moment of the crane boom. Based on the lateral force of the lifting load on the boom head, the corresponding boom head moment, and the inherent parameters of the boom, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined, thereby obtaining the deflection at different positions of the boom. This deflection calculation process is simple and applicable to different computing platforms, balancing calculation efficiency and accuracy. Furthermore, when the method of this application for determining the crane boom deflection is applied to different computing platforms, it has the advantages of strong versatility and rapid real-time response.

[0027] Figure 1 The illustration schematically shows a flowchart of a method for determining crane boom deflection according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a method for determining the deflection of a crane boom. Taking the application of this method to a processor as an example, the method may include the following steps: Step S101: Obtain the lateral force of the boom head and the corresponding boom head moment on the boom head of the crane. Step S102: Determine the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle based on the boom head lateral force, boom head moment, pre-acquired boom head elastic stiffness matrix and pre-acquired boom head geometric stiffness matrix. Step S103: Based on the total length of the boom, the boom head deflection, the boom head rotation angle, and the hinge point distance between the boom root hinge point and the support hinge point of the luffing cylinder, determine the boom axial position-deflection relationship corresponding to the boom. The boom axial position-deflection relationship represents the relationship between the boom axial position and the deflection corresponding to the boom axial position. Step S104: Determine the target deflection corresponding to the target axial position of the boom based on the boom axial position-deflection relationship.

[0028] It can be understood that the lateral force of the boom head lifting load is the load force perpendicular to the boom axis that the boom head experiences during lifting operations. The boom head moment is the moment generated around the boom axis at the boom head position. The boom head elastic stiffness matrix is ​​the matrix showing the relationship between force and deformation within the elastic deformation range of the boom head. The boom head geometric stiffness matrix describes the additional stiffness of the boom head due to geometric deformation (such as deflection changes caused by axial force). The boom head deflection is the amount of bending deformation at the boom head position along the direction perpendicular to the boom axis. The boom head rotation angle is the rotation angle of the boom head position around the boom axis. The total boom length is the total length of the boom. The hinge point distance is the distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point. The boom axial position-deflection relationship is the correspondence between different axial positions of the boom (i.e., different points along the boom length direction) and the corresponding deflection. The target deflection is the deflection corresponding to the target axial position of the boom.

[0029] Specifically, the processor acquires the lateral force and corresponding moment of the boom head on the boom head of the crane. Based on the lateral force, moment, pre-acquired elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired geometric stiffness matrix of the boom, the processor determines the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle. Based on the total boom length, boom head deflection, boom head rotation angle, and the hinge distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point, the processor determines the boom axial position-deflection relationship, enabling the processor to determine the target deflection corresponding to the target boom axial position based on the boom axial position-deflection relationship.

[0030] The above technical solution obtains the lateral force and corresponding moment of the boom head on the crane's boom, providing input data for subsequent deflection calculations and ensuring the reliability of subsequent analysis. Based on the lateral force, moment, pre-acquired elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired geometric stiffness matrix of the boom head, the boom head deflection and rotation angle are determined. Combining the elastic and geometric stiffness matrices makes the calculations of boom head deflection and rotation angle more closely reflect actual working conditions, directly outputting the boom head deflection and rotation angle, clarifying the deformation state of the boom's foremost edge, and providing crucial starting point data for subsequent overall deflection analysis. Based on the total boom length, boom head deflection, boom head rotation angle, and the distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined. Therefore, this application introduces structural parameters such as the distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point, extending the local deformation of the boom head to the entire axial range of the boom, allowing users to understand the deflection distribution at any axial position of the boom (rather than just knowing a single point at the boom head). Furthermore, this application can determine the target deflection corresponding to the target axial position of the boom based on the corresponding axial position-deflection relationship. Therefore, this application first obtains the lateral force of the lifting load on the boom head and the corresponding boom head moment of the crane boom. Based on the lateral force of the lifting load on the boom head, the corresponding boom head moment, and the inherent parameters of the boom, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined, thereby obtaining the deflection at different positions of the boom. This deflection calculation process is simple and applicable to different computing platforms, balancing calculation efficiency and accuracy. Furthermore, when the method of this application for determining the crane boom deflection is applied to different computing platforms, it has the advantages of strong versatility and rapid real-time response.

[0031] In one embodiment, obtaining the lateral force of the boom head lifting load includes: obtaining the boom elevation angle, the lifting weight, and the boom root stiffness; determining the lateral force of the hook lifting load based on the boom elevation angle and the lifting weight; and determining the lateral force of the boom head lifting load based on the boom root stiffness and the hook lifting lateral force.

[0032] It can be understood that the boom elevation angle is the angle between the boom axis and the horizontal plane (i.e., the angle at which the boom is raised). The load weight is the weight of the object being lifted. The hook lateral force is the load force acting on the hook perpendicular to the boom axis. The boom root stiffness is the mechanical stiffness at the boom root.

[0033] Specifically, the processor can determine the lateral force of the hook load based on the boom elevation angle and the load weight. Furthermore, based on the trigonometric decomposition method, the lateral force of the boom head load can be determined according to the boom root stiffness and the hook load lateral force. The processor simplifies the process of determining the lateral force of the boom head load by using the boom elevation angle and the load weight.

[0034] In this embodiment of the application, determining the lateral force of the hook load based on the boom elevation angle and the load weight includes determining the lateral force of the hook load according to the following formula:

[0035] in, F 1 represents the load weight, and θ represents the boom elevation angle. q 1 represents the lateral force of the hook lifting load.

[0036] Specifically, this application can determine the lateral force of the hook load based on the boom elevation angle and the load weight. Furthermore, based on the trigonometric decomposition method, the lateral force of the boom head load can be determined according to the boom root stiffness and the hook load lateral force. As mentioned above, this application utilizes two existing operational parameters—boom elevation angle and load weight—to derive the boom head load lateral force, eliminating the cost of deploying additional lateral force detection hardware and significantly simplifying the process of determining the load lateral force, thus balancing economy and operational efficiency.

[0037] In one embodiment, the crane includes a boom head, an upper head pulley located at the top of the boom head, a lower head pulley located at the bottom of the boom head, and a hoisting wire rope. Obtaining the boom head moment includes: obtaining the boom elevation angle, the load weight, the wire rope tension, the first distance between the upper head pulley and the centerline of the boom head, the second distance between the lower head pulley and the centerline of the boom head, and the boom root stiffness; determining the boom head centerline moment based on the load weight, boom elevation angle, first distance, wire rope tension, and second distance; and determining the boom head moment based on the boom head centerline moment and the boom root stiffness.

[0038] It can be understood that the wire rope tension is the tensile force borne by the wire rope during crane hoisting operations. The first gap is the distance between the upper pulley at the head and the centerline of the boom head. The second gap is the distance between the lower pulley at the head and the centerline of the boom head. The boom head centerline moment is the moment acting on the centerline of the boom head structure. The boom root stiffness is the mechanical stiffness at the boom root.

[0039] Specifically, the processor can acquire the boom elevation angle, the load weight, the wire rope tension, the first distance between the upper pulley at the boom head and the centerline of the boom head, and the second distance between the lower pulley at the boom head and the centerline of the boom head. Based on the load weight, boom elevation angle, first distance, wire rope tension, and second distance, the boom head centerline moment is determined. Furthermore, based on the boom head centerline moment and the boom root stiffness, the boom head moment is determined. This application utilizes operational data such as boom elevation angle, load weight, and wire rope tension, combined with structural stress information such as the first and second distances, and boom root stiffness to derive the boom head moment. This achieves coupled analysis of multi-dimensional parameters, making the boom head moment result more closely match the actual stress conditions of the boom head, while balancing the lightweight design and computational reliability.

[0040] In one embodiment, determining the moment along the boom centerline based on the load weight, boom elevation angle, first spacing, wire rope tension, and second spacing includes:

[0041] in, F 1 represents the load weight, and θ represents the boom elevation angle. d 1 represents the first spacing. F2 For the tension of the steel wire rope, d 2 represents the second spacing. rm 1 represents the moment along the centerline of the boom head.

[0042] Specifically, the processor determines the moment along the boom head centerline based on the load weight, wire rope tension, first spacing, second spacing, and boom elevation angle using the formula shown above.

[0043] In one embodiment, the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle are determined based on the boom head lateral force, boom head moment, pre-acquired boom head elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired boom head geometric stiffness matrix, using the following formulas:

[0044] in, Here is the elastic stiffness matrix of the arm head. Here, is the arm head geometric stiffness matrix, and wn is the arm head deflection. zn For the arm head corner, q For the lateral force of the boom head lifting load, rm This is the moment at the head of the arm.

[0045] Specifically, the processor determines the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle based on the boom head lateral force, boom head moment, pre-acquired boom head elastic stiffness matrix, and pre-acquired boom head geometric stiffness matrix, using the formulas described above. This application combines the elastic stiffness matrix and the geometric stiffness matrix to make the calculation of boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle more closely match the actual working conditions, simplifying the solution of boom head deformation parameters and providing reliable basic data for subsequent full boom deflection analysis.

[0046] In one embodiment, the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom is determined based on the total boom length, boom head deflection, boom head rotation angle, and the hinge point distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point. This is achieved using the following formula: v ( x ) =ax³ + bx² + cx

[0047]

[0048]

[0049] in, x This refers to the axial position of the boom. This represents the deflection corresponding to the axial position x of the boom. lp The distance between the hinge points. l This is the total length of the boom. wn For arm head deflection, rm This is the moment at the head of the arm.

[0050] Specifically, the processor can determine the axial position-deflection relationship of the boom based on the total boom length, boom head deflection, boom head rotation angle, and the hinge point distance between the boom root hinge point and the luffing cylinder support hinge point. A cubic polynomial can be fitted based on the following boundary conditions:

[0051] in, x This refers to the axial position of the boom. This represents the deflection corresponding to the axial position x of the boom. lp The distance between the hinge points. l This is the total length of the boom. wn For arm head deflection, rm For the arm head torque, This is the first derivative of the deflection corresponding to the axial position of the boom.

[0052] In this embodiment, by introducing structural parameters such as the total length of the boom and the distance between hinge points, and combining the boom head deflection and boom head rotation angle, a cubic polynomial formula is used to construct the relationship between the axial position and deflection of the boom, thereby realizing the accurate calculation of the deflection at any position of the entire boom.

[0053] A specific embodiment of this application provides a method for determining the deflection of a crane boom, the details of which are as follows: Establish a complete mechanical model for calculating boom deformation, such as Figure 2 As shown, based on the force characteristics of the boom, the entire boom can be considered equivalent to a simply supported overhanging beam. F 1 represents the load weight, and θ represents the boom elevation angle. d 1 represents the first spacing. F2 For the tension of the steel wire rope, d 2 represents the second spacing, and G represents the weight of the boom itself. lp The distance between the hinge points. l Let be the total length of the boom. Given the boom's material properties and dimensional parameters, a set of differential equilibrium equations can be established based on nonlinear finite element beam theory. However, the number of equations and unknowns is large, making it unsolvable on low-computing-power platforms.

[0054] The solution method used for the linear algebraic equation system is the trigonometric decomposition method. Starting from the algebraic equations, the principle is to eliminate variables sequentially until only the nodal equilibrium equations of the arm head remain, i.e., a system of two linear equations in two variables. Finally, solving the following equations yields the displacement of the arm head.

[0055]

[0056] in, Let be the elastic stiffness matrix. The geometric stiffness matrix is... wn The arm head deflection, zn The arm head rotation angle, q The lateral force of the boom head lifting load, rm The torque at the arm head is described.

[0057] Based on the deflection and rotation angle of the boom head, the deflection of other nodes of the boom is obtained through cubic polynomial fitting. The deflection equation for a simply supported overhanging boom is assumed to be: v ( x ) =ax³ + bx² + cx The boundary conditions are:

[0058] We can obtain:

[0059]

[0060]

[0061] in, x The axial position of the boom. This represents the deflection corresponding to the axial position x of the boom. lp The distance between the hinge points. l The total length of the boom is... wn The arm head deflection, rm The torque at the arm head is described.

[0062] like Figure 3 As shown, to facilitate the application of the boom deflection curve equation, the curve coordinates in the local xoy coordinate system are transformed to the global XOY coordinate system. The transformation relationship is the initial coordinates of the boom in the global coordinate system before deformation, plus the deformation amount. The deformation amount can be obtained through the axial position-deflection relationship, thus obtaining the coordinates after deformation in the global coordinate system. Figure 3 The X-axis represents the horizontal direction of the boom's spatial position, and the Y-axis represents the vertical direction. The origin O is the base of the boom (the position where it connects to the base). The blue line represents the undeformed curve, the initial shape of the boom without load (usually a straight line, representing the boom in its original straight state). The orange line represents the partially deformed curve, the shape of the boom after being subjected to load (such as lifting heavy objects or its own weight), resulting in geometric deformation.

[0063] Specifically, the software application solution for hoisting methods includes: To encapsulate the above numerical algorithms into DLL and SO libraries, the following steps are required: First, write header files to declare functions, then write source files to implement the functionality. After marking exported functions with the `__declspec(dllexport)` keyword, compile them into .dll files using the `gcc-shared` command of the GCC compiler. .so files can be compiled directly using the `gcc-fPIC-shared` command of the GCC compiler. When using the libraries, load the library via the API interfaces `LoadLibrary / dlopen`, obtain function pointers via `GetProcAddress / dlsym`, and finally release the library. This method compiles the code into binary files that can be dynamically loaded by other programs, enabling code reuse and modular development, reducing repetitive compilation, and facilitating updates and maintenance.

[0064] Method for integrating the hoisting method software: Embed the DLL or SO library as a sub-function module within the software. To ensure the deformation effect of the boom's 3D model, a coordinate point is set every 0.5 meters. After calling the DLL or SO library, the coordinates of the boom after deformation can be output. Through real-time 3D model display technology, the real-time deformation calculation function of the boom can be realized.

[0065] Vehicle-mounted application solutions for actual operation: 4) Encapsulate the above numerical algorithms into a PLC or ST library and port them to a separate controller.

[0066] 5) The crane model parameters are stored in the deflection PLC controller. The crane operating parameters are sent through the display or the action PLC controller (such as load weight, main boom elevation angle, telescopic combination, ratio, etc.). The results are displayed on the vehicle-mounted force limiter interface, showing the deflection deformation, lateral bending, and amplitude results.

[0067] As can be seen from the above application scheme, this application overcomes the problem that the traditional nonlinear finite element method has a complex calculation process, resulting in high computing power requirements and inability to be applied to low-computing-power platforms. This application is applicable to different computing power platforms, balancing computational efficiency and accuracy. The rapid deformation lifting method and operation application scheme of the boom proposed in this application has the advantages of strong versatility and rapid real-time response.
