Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a bogie. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 discloses a power-assisted cart having a handle that detects the operating force of a user and a power-assisted control means that drives drive wheels for traveling and steering based on the operating force input to the handle.

[0003] Patent Document 2 discloses an omnidirectional wheel that moves the vehicle body in all directions along the floor surface. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-114800 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2017-210035 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] If omnidirectional wheels such as those described in Patent Document 2 are applied to the wheels of the dolly described in Patent Document 1, the dolly will be able to move parallel to the left and right. In this case, a dolly control device can set a target left and right speed based on a left and right load applied to the handle and drive the omnidirectional wheels left and right based on the target left and right speed. Alternatively, a target angular velocity about the vertical axis can be set based on a moment about the vertical axis applied to the handle and a difference in the forward and backward speeds of the left and right omnidirectional wheels can be set based on the target angular velocity. However, when a user operates the handle to turn the dolly, it is difficult to apply only a moment about the vertical axis to the handle without applying a load in the left and right direction. Therefore, when the user performs a turning operation, an unintended left and right load may be applied to the handle, causing the dolly to move left and right in an unintended direction.

[0006] In view of the above background, an object of the present invention is to provide a bogie that can perform an appropriate turning operation. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, one aspect of the present invention is a bogie (1), comprising a car body (2), left and right omnidirectional wheels (3) provided on the car body for moving the car body in all directions along a floor surface, left and right drive units (4) for driving the omnidirectional wheels, respectively, a handle (5) provided on the car body for receiving operation by a user, a sensor (6) for detecting a front-rear load, a side-rear load, and a moment about a vertical axis applied to the handle, and a drive control unit (7) for controlling the drive control unit (7) based on the front-rear load, the side-rear load, and the moment about a vertical axis detected by the sensor. and a control device (7) that controls the drive unit, wherein the control device sets a target longitudinal velocity of the vehicle body based on the longitudinal load, sets a target lateral velocity of the vehicle body based on the lateral load, sets a target angular velocity around the vertical axis of the vehicle body based on the moment around the vertical axis, corrects the target lateral velocity based on the target angular velocity so that the absolute value of the target lateral velocity becomes smaller as the absolute value of the target angular velocity increases, and controls the drive unit based on the target longitudinal velocity, the corrected target lateral velocity, and the target angular velocity.

[0008] According to this aspect, it is possible to provide a cart that can perform appropriate turning operations. Since the target lateral speed is corrected to decrease as the target angular speed increases, the cart is prevented from moving in the lateral direction even if the user applies unintended lateral loads to the handle during a turning operation.

[0009] In the above aspect, the control device may set a left / right velocity upper limit value based on the target angular velocity, and the left / right velocity upper limit value may be set so that the absolute value of the left / right velocity upper limit value becomes smaller as the absolute value of the target angular velocity increases, and the target left / right velocity may be corrected so that the absolute value of the target left / right velocity is equal to or less than the left / right velocity upper limit value.

[0010] According to this aspect, by lowering the upper limit value of the lateral speed in accordance with an increase in the target angular speed, movement in the lateral direction during turning can be suppressed.

[0011] In the above aspect, the left / right speed upper limit value may be set to a value equal to or greater than a predetermined lower limit value.

[0012] According to this aspect, the cart moves slightly left and right in response to the user's turning operation, thereby bringing the user's operational feeling closer to the cart's response.

[0013] In the above aspect, the upper limit value of the lateral velocity may have a negative linear relationship with the target angular velocity in a region equal to or greater than the lower limit value.

[0014] According to this aspect, the upper limit value of the lateral velocity can be reduced in accordance with an increase in the target angular velocity.

[0015] In the above aspect, the control device may correct the target angular velocity so that the absolute value of the target angular velocity is equal to or less than a predetermined upper angular velocity limit value, and control the drive unit based on the corrected target angular velocity instead of the target angular velocity.

[0016] According to this aspect, an upper limit value is set for the angular velocity of the carriage about the vertical axis, making it easier to operate the carriage.

[0017] In the above aspect, the control device may correct the target lateral velocity based on the correction value of the target angular velocity such that the absolute value of the target lateral velocity decreases as the absolute value of the correction value of the target angular velocity increases.

[0018] According to this aspect, since the target lateral velocity is corrected based on the corrected target angular velocity, it is possible to prevent the target lateral velocity from decreasing too much, thereby enabling the cart to generate a driving force that is more suited to the user's operating sensation.

[0019] In the above aspect, the control device may correct the target longitudinal speed so that the absolute value of the target longitudinal speed is equal to or less than a predetermined longitudinal speed upper limit value, and control the drive unit based on the corrected target longitudinal speed instead of the target longitudinal speed.

[0020] According to this aspect, an upper limit value for the forward and backward speed of the carriage is set, making it easier to operate the carriage. [Effects of the Invention]

[0021] According to the above configuration, it is possible to provide a bogie that can perform an appropriate turning operation. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0023] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of a bogie according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0024] As shown in Figure 1, the bogie 1 has a body 2, at least one omnidirectional wheel 3 mounted on the body 2 and adapted to move the body 2 in all directions along the floor surface, a drive unit 4 for driving each of the omnidirectional wheels 3, a handle 5 mounted on the body 2 for receiving user operation, a force sensor 6 for detecting the load applied to the handle 5, and a control device 7 for controlling the drive unit 4 based on the load detected by each of the force sensors 6.

[0025] The vehicle body 2 extends in the front-to-rear direction. A rear portion 2A of the vehicle body 2 extends higher than a front portion 2B. A support base 11 for supporting other devices is provided on the front portion 2B of the vehicle body 2. The devices supported by the support base 11 include, for example, inspection equipment such as an X-ray scanner. The devices may be fastened to the support base 11. A control device 7, a battery, and various sensors may be provided inside the rear portion 2A of the vehicle body 2.

[0026] In this embodiment, a pair of omnidirectional wheels 3 are provided at the bottom of the rear section 2A of the vehicle body 2. Left and right casters 13 are supported via suspensions at the bottom of the front section 2B of the vehicle body 2. The suspensions are disposed below the vehicle body 2 and include arms 14 extending left and right, and springs 15 and shock absorbers 16 disposed between the vehicle body 2 and the arms 14. Each caster 13 is disposed below the left and right ends of the arms 14. Each caster 13 includes a fork 13A rotatably connected to the arm 14 about an axis extending vertically, and a wheel 13B rotatably supported by the fork 13A about an axis extending horizontally. The fork 13A rotates freely relative to the arm 14, and the wheel 13B rotates freely relative to the fork 13A.

[0027] As shown in Fig. 2, a pair of omnidirectional wheels 3 are arranged at a distance from each other on the left and right sides. In this embodiment, the pair of omnidirectional wheels 3 are arranged at the lower left and right sides of the rear part 2A of the vehicle body 2. As shown in Fig. 3, each omnidirectional wheel 3 has a frame 17, a pair of drive discs 18 rotatably supported on the frame 17, and an annular main wheel 19 arranged between the pair of drive discs 18.

[0028] As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the frame 17 has a frame upper portion 17A connected to the lower part of the vehicle body 2, and a pair of frame side portions 17B extending downward from both left and right ends of the frame upper portion 17A. A support shaft 21 extending left and right is hung between the lower ends of the pair of frame side portions 17B. A pair of drive disks 18 are rotatably supported on the support shaft 21. The pair of drive disks 18 rotate around an axis Y1 of the support shaft 21. The position of each drive disk 18 in the left-right direction is restricted relative to the support shaft 21. The drive disks 18 face each other at a distance from each other in the left-right direction.

[0029] The drive discs 18 are arranged on both sides of the annular main wheels 19 and apply frictional force to the main wheels 19 to rotate them about the central axis and the annular axis. The drive disc 18 has a disk-shaped base 18A that is rotatably supported by the frame 17, and a plurality of drive rollers 18B that are rotatably supported on the outer periphery of the base 18A at an angle to each other and come into contact with the main wheels 19. The base 18A is arranged coaxially with the support shaft 21.

[0030] A driven pulley 18C is provided on each of the opposing surfaces of each drive disc 18. The driven pulley 18C is provided coaxially with the drive disc 18. The drive unit 4 is provided under the vehicle body 2, and has a plurality of electric motors 25 corresponding to each drive disc 18. In this embodiment, four electric motors 25 are provided corresponding to the four drive discs 18. A drive pulley 26 is provided on the output shaft of each electric motor 25. The corresponding drive pulley 26 and driven pulley 18C are connected by a belt 27. The electric motors 25 rotate independently of each other, causing each drive disc 18 to rotate independently of each other.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 4, the main wheel 19 is annular, is disposed coaxially with the pair of drive discs 18, and is in contact with a plurality of drive rollers 18B, and is rotatable about a central axis and an annular axis. The main wheel 19 has an annular core body 31 and a plurality of driven rollers 32 rotatably supported by the core body 31. The driven rollers 32 are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the core body 31. Each driven roller 32 is supported by the core body 31 so as to be rotatable about the axis A1 (annular axis) of the annular core body 31. Each driven roller 32 can rotate about a tangent to the core body 31 at its respective position relative to the core body 31. Each driven roller 32 rotates relative to the core body 31 when subjected to an external force.

[0032] The main wheels 19 are arranged along the outer peripheries of the pair of drive discs 18 and are in contact with multiple drive rollers 18B provided on each drive disc 18. The drive rollers 18B of each drive disc 18 are in contact with the inner periphery of the main wheels 19, sandwiching the main wheels 19 from both the left and right sides. The drive rollers 18B of the left and right drive discs 18 also contact the inner periphery of the main wheels 19, thereby restricting radial displacement of the drive discs 18 around the axis Y1. As a result, the main wheels 19 are supported by the left and right drive discs 18, and the central axes of the main wheels 19 (core bodies 31) are arranged coaxially with the axis Y1 of the left and right drive discs 18. The main wheels 19 are in contact with the multiple drive rollers 18B of the left and right drive discs 18 at the multiple driven rollers 32.

[0033] In each omnidirectional wheel 3, when a pair of drive discs 18 rotate in the same direction at the same rotational speed, the main wheels 19 rotate together with the pair of drive discs 18. That is, the main wheels 19 rotate forward or backward around their own rotational axes, which coincide with the axis Y1. At this time, the drive rollers 18B of the drive discs 18 and the driven rollers 32 of the main wheels 19 do not rotate relative to the core body 31. In each omnidirectional wheel 3, when a difference in rotational speed occurs between the pair of drive discs 18, a component force perpendicular to the circumferential (tangential) force caused by the rotation of the pair of drive discs 18 acts from the left and right drive rollers 18B on the driven rollers 32 of the main wheels 19. Because the axes of the drive rollers 18B are inclined with respect to the circumferential direction of the drive rollers 18B, a component force occurs between the drive discs 18 due to the difference in rotational speed. This component force causes the drive rollers 18B to rotate relative to the base 18A, and the driven rollers 32 to rotate relative to the core body 31. As a result, the main wheels 19 generate driving forces in the left and right directions.

[0034] The left and right omnidirectional wheels 3 rotate forward at the same speed, causing the bogie 1 to move forward. The left and right omnidirectional wheels 3 rotate backward at the same speed, causing the bogie 1 to move backward. The left and right omnidirectional wheels 3 generate speed in the forward and backward rotations, causing the bogie 1 to turn right or left. The driven rollers 32 of each main wheel 19 of the left and right omnidirectional wheels 3 rotate, causing the bogie 1 to move parallel to the right or left.

[0035] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a handle holder 35 protruding upward is provided on the upper part of the rear part 2A of the vehicle body 2. The handle 5 is supported on the handle holder 35 via a force sensor 6. The force sensor 6 is preferably a three-axis force sensor that detects loads along two axes that are perpendicular to each other on a horizontal plane and moments about a vertical axis (z-axis). In this embodiment, the force sensor 6 detects a longitudinal load that is a load applied to the handle 5 in the longitudinal direction (x-axis), a lateral load that is a load in the lateral direction (y-axis), and a moment about the vertical axis (z-axis). The force sensor 6 has a main body and an input unit provided on the main body. The main body is connected to the handle holder 35.

[0036] The handle 5 has a horizontal portion 5A extending laterally and a pair of vertical portions 5B extending forward from the left and right ends of the horizontal portion 5A. The center portion of the horizontal portion 5A in the left-right direction is connected to the input portion of the force sensor 6.

[0037] 2, when a user applies an external force fh and a moment mhz to the handle 5 at position rh, the force sensor 6 detects a detection force fs and a detection moment msz at the sensor position rs. The detection force fs includes a front-to-rear load fs1, which is a front-to-rear component, and a left-to-right load fs2, which is a left-to-right component.

[0038] The control device 7 is an electronic control unit (ECU) including a processor such as a CPU, a non-volatile memory (ROM), and a volatile memory (RAM). The control device 7 controls the drive unit 4 by executing arithmetic processing in the processor according to a program stored in the non-volatile memory. The control device 7 may be configured as a single piece of hardware, or may be configured as a unit consisting of multiple pieces of hardware. Furthermore, at least some of the functional units of the control device 7 may be realized by hardware such as an LSI, an ASIC, or an FPGA, or may be realized by a combination of software and hardware.

[0039] 5, the control device 7 is connected to the force sensor 6 and the drive unit 4. The force sensor 6 outputs a detection signal to the control device 7. The control device 7 outputs a control signal to the drive unit 4.

[0040] The control device 7 controls the drive unit 4 based on a signal from the force sensor 6. The force sensor 6 is installed between the vehicle body 2 and the handle 5. The force sensor 6 detects the magnitude and direction of the operating force (load) applied to the handle 5 by the user. The control device 7 determines a target longitudinal speed vt1, a target lateral speed vt2, and a target angular velocity ωt of the bogie 1 based on the signal from the force sensor 6, and determines the control amount of each electric motor 25 of the drive unit 4 based on the target longitudinal speed vt1, the target lateral speed vt2, and the target angular velocity ωt.

[0041] The control device 7 controls the drive unit 4 based on the flow diagram shown in Fig. 6. First, the control device 7 calculates the detected force f detected by the force sensor 6 based on the signal from the force sensor 6. s and obtain the detection moment msz (S1). s includes a front-rear load fs1 and a left-right load fs2.

[0042] Next, the control device 7 sets the target longitudinal speed vt1 of the vehicle body 2 based on the longitudinal load fs1, and s2 A target lateral velocity vt2 of the vehicle body 2 is set based on the moment msz about the vertical axis, and a target angular velocity ωt about the vertical axis of the vehicle body 2 is set based on the moment msz about the vertical axis (S2).

[0043] The target longitudinal speed vt may be set, for example, by multiplying the longitudinal load fs1 by a predetermined coefficient k1. The target lateral speed vt2 may be set, for example, by multiplying the lateral load fs2 by a predetermined coefficient k2. The target angular speed ωt may be set, for example, by multiplying the moment msz about the vertical axis by a predetermined coefficient k3. The target angular speed ωt is set with a reference point as its center. The reference point may be set at a position that coincides with the center of gravity of the bogie 1 in a plan view. In this embodiment, the reference point is located at the midpoint of the line segment connecting the pair of omnidirectional wheels 3. Note that the methods for setting the target longitudinal speed vt1, the target lateral speed vt2, and the target angular speed ωt are not limited to these.

[0044] Next, the control device 7 corrects the target angular velocity ωt so that the absolute value of the target angular velocity ωt is equal to or less than a predetermined upper angular velocity limit (S3). The upper angular velocity limit may be a predetermined value that is set in advance. For example, when the absolute value of the target angular velocity ωt is greater than the upper angular velocity limit, the control device 7 may set the value of the target angular velocity ωt so that the absolute value of the target angular velocity ωt is equal to the upper angular velocity limit. Furthermore, for example, when the absolute value of the target angular velocity ωt is smaller than the upper angular velocity limit, the control device 7 may set the target angular velocity ωt as is as the corrected target angular velocity ωt.

[0045] Next, the control device 7 sets the left / right velocity upper limit value vt2u based on the corrected target angular velocity ωt (S4). The control device 7 may set the left / right velocity upper limit value vt2u based on the target angular velocity ωt using, for example, the map shown in FIG. 7. The left / right velocity upper limit value vt2u is set so that its absolute value decreases as the absolute value of the target angular velocity ωt increases. The left / right velocity upper limit value vt2u is set to a value equal to or greater than a predetermined lower limit value vt2ul. The lower limit value vt2ul is set to a value greater than 0. The left / right velocity upper limit value vt2u may have a negative linear relationship with the target angular velocity ωt in a region equal to or greater than the lower limit value vt2ul.

[0046] Next, the control device 7 corrects the target lateral speed vt2 based on the target lateral speed vt2 and the lateral speed upper limit vt2u so that the absolute value of the target lateral speed vt2 is equal to or less than the lateral speed upper limit vt2u (S5). For example, when the absolute value of the target lateral speed vt2 is greater than the lateral speed upper limit vt2u, the control device 7 may correct the value of the target lateral speed vt2 so that the absolute value of the target lateral speed vt2 is equal to the lateral speed upper limit vt2u. Furthermore, for example, when the absolute value of the target lateral speed vt2 is smaller than the lateral speed upper limit vt2u, the control device 7 may set the target lateral speed vt2 as the corrected target lateral speed vt2 as is.

[0047] Next, the control device 7 corrects the target longitudinal speed vt1 so that its absolute value is equal to or less than a predetermined longitudinal speed upper limit (S6). The longitudinal speed upper limit may be a predetermined value that is set in advance. For example, when the absolute value of the target longitudinal speed vt1 is greater than the longitudinal speed upper limit, the control device 7 may set the value of the target longitudinal speed vt1 so that its absolute value is equal to the longitudinal speed upper limit. Furthermore, for example, when the absolute value of the target longitudinal speed vt1 is smaller than the longitudinal speed upper limit, the control device 7 may set the target longitudinal speed vt1 as is as the corrected target longitudinal speed vt1.

[0048] The control device 7 controls the drive unit 4 based on the corrected target longitudinal speed vt1, the corrected target lateral speed vt2, and the corrected target angular speed ωt (S7). The control device 7 sets the target rotation speed rt of each electric motor 25 based on the corrected target longitudinal speed vt1, the corrected target lateral speed vt2, and the corrected target angular speed ωt. The control device 7 then controls the current supplied to each electric motor 25 so that the rotation speed of each electric motor 25 becomes the target rotation speed.

[0049] An example of a method in which the control device 7 controls the drive unit 4 is shown below. First, the control device 7 sets a first rotational speed r1 of each electric motor 25 based on the corrected target longitudinal speed vt1 by referring to a first map. The first map defines the relationship between the corrected target longitudinal speed vt1 and the rotational speed of each electric motor 25. Next, the control device 7 sets a second rotational speed r2 of each electric motor 25 based on the corrected target lateral speed vt2 by referring to a second map. The second map defines the relationship between the corrected target lateral speed vt2 and the rotational speed of each electric motor 25. Next, the control device 7 sets a third rotational speed r3 of each electric motor 25 based on the corrected target angular speed ωt by referring to a third map. The third map defines the relationship between the corrected target angular speed ωt and the rotational speed of each electric motor 25. Next, the control device 7 calculates the target rotation speed rt of each electric motor 25 by adding the first rotation speed r1, the second rotation speed r2, and the third rotation speed r3 of each electric motor 25 (rt = r1 + r2 + r3). ​​Then, the control device 7 sets the value of current It to be supplied to each electric motor 25 based on the target rotation speed rt of each electric motor 25 by referring to a fourth map. The fourth map defines the relationship between the target rotation speed rt and the value of current It to be supplied to each electric motor 25.

[0050] According to the above embodiment, the target lateral velocity vt2 is corrected to decrease as the target angular velocity ωt increases. This prevents the dolly 1 from moving left or right even if the user applies an unintended lateral load to the handle 5 during a turning operation. When a user is pushing the dolly 1 from rear to front, the user may apply a leftward load to the handle 5 provided on the rear portion 2A of the dolly 1 to turn the dolly 1 to the right. In the dolly 1 according to this embodiment, the target lateral velocity vt2 is corrected to decrease as the target angular velocity ωt increases. This suppresses the leftward target lateral velocity vt2 for a leftward load applied by the user. This allows the dolly 1 to turn appropriately to the right, as shown by the trajectory 50 in FIG. 7 . On the other hand, in a comparative example in which the target lateral velocity vt2 is not corrected to decrease as the target angular velocity ωt increases, a relatively large leftward target lateral velocity vt2 is set for a leftward load applied by the user. This causes the dolly 1 to turn right while bulging leftward, as shown by the trajectory 51 in FIG. 7 . In this way, according to this embodiment, it is possible to provide a truck 1 that can suppress sliding movement in the left and right directions when turning.

[0051] The left / right speed upper limit value vt2u is set to a value equal to or greater than a predetermined lower limit value vt2ul. This causes the cart 1 to move slightly left / right in response to the user's turning operation. This allows the user's operating sensation to be brought closer to the response of the cart 1.

[0052] Since the target lateral velocity vt2 is corrected based on the corrected target angular velocity ωt, it is possible to prevent the target lateral velocity vt2 from decreasing too much, thereby enabling the cart 1 to generate a driving force that is more suited to the user's operating sensation.

[0053] Although the description of the specific embodiment has been completed above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be widely modified and implemented. For example, the control device 7 can use various methods to correct the target lateral velocity vt2 so that it decreases as the target angular velocity ωt increases. For example, a coefficient may be set based on the target angular velocity ωt, and the target lateral velocity vt2 may be corrected by multiplying the coefficient by the target lateral velocity vt2. The coefficient may decrease between 1 and 0 as the target angular velocity ωt increases, for example.

[0054] In other embodiments, a sensor capable of detecting the front-rear load, the left-right load, and the moment around the vertical axis applied to the handle 5 may be used instead of the force sensor 6. For example, the sensor may be configured by combining a plurality of independent load sensors. [Explanation of symbols]
