[0058] FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a parameter determination method of a construction device according to an embodiment of the present application. The present embodiment can be applied to the case of determining parameters of a construction device (such as an excavator). The method can be executed by a parameter determination apparatus, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software, and can be configured in the construction device (such as a controller integrated in the construction device). As shown in FIG. 4, the method includes the following steps:

[0059] S410, determining a mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm.

[0060] As described above, the construction device includes a vehicle body, a mechanical arm, and a bucket. The mechanical arm and the bucket can be directly connected or connected through a functional component (i.e., the functional component is installed between the mechanical arm and the bucket). The functional component includes a quick-change device and / or a tiltrotator.

[0061] For the case where the mechanical arm and the bucket are directly connected, a conventional excavator guidance system can be used to determine the position coordinates of any point of interest of the vehicle body, which is not specifically limited in the present embodiment. For the case where the mechanical arm and the bucket are connected through a functional component, the mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm needs to be determined.

[0062] In the present application, the mounting point of the mechanical arm generally refers to the connection point between the forearm and the functional component. The mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm can be determined by the axis of the upper arm. The mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm can be expressed in the form of coordinates or relative position.

[0063] S420, calculating an axis point parameter of the functional component directly connected to the bucket according to the mounting point parameter, wherein when the functional component only includes the quick-change device, the functional component directly connected to the bucket is the quick-change device; when the functional component only includes the tiltrotator, or the functional component includes both the quick-change device and the tiltrotator, the functional component directly connected to the bucket is the tiltrotator.

[0064] S430, determining the bucket parameter of the bucket according to the axis point parameter of the functional part directly connected with the bucket.

[0065] Generally, the bucket parameter includes the axis point parameter (such as the mounting axis point parameter) of the bucket and the tip parameter, and the tip parameter at least includes the left tip parameter and the right tip parameter.

[0066] It can be known from steps S420-S430 that the specific structure of the functional part needs to be determined before step S420 is performed.

[0067] Exemplarily, it can be determined in the direction from the end of the small arm to the tip of the bucket: first, it is determined whether the functional part includes the quick-change device, and then it is determined whether the functional part includes the tilt device.

[0068] If the functional part only includes the quick-change device, the relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier at this time is: large arm + small arm + quick-change device + bucket. The functional part directly connected with the bucket is the quick-change device. The implementation mode of steps S420-S430 is: the axis point parameter of the quick-change device is calculated according to the mounting point parameter; and the bucket parameter of the bucket can be determined according to the axis point parameter of the quick-change device.

[0069] If the functional part only includes the tilt device, the relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier at this time is: large arm + small arm + tilt device + bucket. The functional part directly connected with the bucket is the tilt device. The implementation mode of steps S420-S430 is: the axis point parameter of the tilt device is calculated according to the mounting point parameter; and the bucket parameter of the bucket can be determined according to the axis point parameter of the tilt device.

[0070] If the functional part includes the quick-change device and the tilt device, the relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier at this time is: large arm + small arm + quick-change device + tilt device + bucket. The functional part directly connected with the bucket is the tilt device. The implementation mode of steps S420-S430 is: the axis point parameter of the quick-change device is calculated according to the mounting point parameter; the axis point parameter of the tilt device is calculated according to the axis point parameter of the quick-change device; and the bucket parameter of the bucket can be determined according to the axis point parameter of the tilt device.

[0071] Three examples are provided below to illustrate steps S420-S430.

[0072] Example 1: The functional part only includes the quick-change device, and the functional part directly connected with the bucket is the quick-change device. The relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier is: large arm + small arm + quick-change device + bucket.

[0073] In example 1, as shown in FIG. 2, the mounting point H of the quick-change device is connected to the small arm of the excavator, the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device is connected to the connecting rod, and the quick-change point Q and the auxiliary quick-change point Q' of the quick-change device are respectively connected to the two shafts of the bucket. The quick-change device can realize the quick loading and unloading of the bucket.

[0074] Based on the definition in step S410, since the mounting point of the mechanical arm is the connection point between the small arm and the functional part, in example 1, the mounting point H of the quick-change device coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm is the H point parameter. The shaft center point of the quick-change device is the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device.

[0075] According to the H point parameter, the method for calculating the Q point parameter can include the following steps:

[0076] Step a1: determining a first angle, wherein the first angle is the angle between the bottom side of the quick-change device and the horizontal plane.

[0077] The bottom side of the quick-change device is the line between the quick-change point Q and the auxiliary quick-change point Q' of the quick-change device, and the X axis of the coordinate system is parallel to the horizontal plane. Therefore, the first angle is the angle between QQ' and the X axis, denoted as a.

[0078] Optionally, the first angle a can be collected by the angle sensor provided on the construction equipment.

[0079] Step a2: calculating the shaft center point parameter of the quick-change device according to the mounting point parameter, the first angle, the first distance and the second distance, wherein the first distance is the distance from the mounting point of the quick-change device to the bottom side of the quick-change device, the mounting point of the quick-change device coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the second distance is the horizontal offset of the mounting point of the quick-change device to the quick-change point of the quick-change device.

[0080] In the case where the H point parameter, the first angle a and the related parameters of the quick-change device are known, the Q point parameter can be determined according to the principle of two-dimensional rotation matrix.

[0081] The related parameters of the quick-change device can be stored in the construction equipment, or can be obtained by network query through the model of the quick-change device.

[0082] The related parameters of the quick-change device at least include the first distance and the second distance. As shown in FIG. 2, the first distance is the distance from the mounting point H of the quick-change device to the bottom side QQ' of the quick-change device, denoted as QH2; the second distance is the horizontal offset of the mounting point H of the quick-change device to the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device, denoted as QH4. Optionally, the related parameters of the quick-change device can also include the distance QH1 between the mounting point H and the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device, and the angle QH3 between the line between the mounting point H and the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device and the bottom side QQ' of the quick-change device.

[0083] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of a two-dimensional rotation matrix according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 5, there is a point P in the Cartesian plane rectangular coordinate system XOY, and the coordinates of the point P in the coordinate system XOY are (x, y). After the point P rotates by an angle θ around the origin, the coordinates of the new point P' are (x', y').

[0084] The coordinates of P' are (x', y') satisfy the following relationship:

[0085] Therefore, taking the direction facing the construction equipment from the cab as the positive direction and the Z-axis vertically upward as the positive direction, the Q point parameters can be expressed as:

[0086] Since the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device coincides with the mounting point of the bucket, the mounting point of the bucket is the mounting axis point of the bucket. Therefore, the axis point parameters of the bucket are the Q point parameters, and the bucket tip parameters can be calculated according to the Q point parameters.

[0087] Example 2: The functional part only includes a tilt device, and the functional part directly connected to the bucket is the tilt device. The relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier is: large arm + small arm + tilt device + bucket.

[0088] In example 2, as shown in Figure 3, the mounting point A of the tilt device is connected to the small arm of the excavator, the auxiliary mounting point A' of the tilt device is connected to the connecting rod, and the quick-change point B and the auxiliary quick-change point B' of the tilt device are respectively connected to the two axis centers of the bucket. The tilt device can adjust the pose of the bucket.

[0089] Based on the definition in step S410, since the mounting point of the mechanical arm is the connection point between the small arm and the functional part, in example 2, the mounting point A of the tilt device coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the mounting point parameters of the mechanical arm are the A point parameters. The axis point of the tilt device is the intersection I of the tilt axis and the rotation axis.

[0090] According to the A point parameters, the method for calculating the I point parameters can include the following steps:

[0091] Step b1: determining a second angle, wherein the second angle is the included angle between the tilt axis of the tilt device and the horizontal plane.

[0092] The second angle is the included angle between the tilt axis of the tilt device and the horizontal plane, denoted as λ. In the drawings of the present application, the tilt device is drawn without rotation, tilt and pitch, and the second angle λ is 0° at this time. In actual application, the size of the second angle λ can be determined by measurement.

[0093] Optionally, the second angle λ can be acquired by an angle sensor provided on the construction equipment.

[0094] Step b2: calculating the pivot point parameter of the tiltrotor according to the mounting point parameter, the second angle, a third distance and a fourth distance, wherein the third distance is a distance from the mounting point of the tiltrotor to the tilt axis of the tiltrotor, the mounting point of the tiltrotor coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the fourth distance is a distance from the quick-change point of the tiltrotor to the rotation axis of the tiltrotor.

[0095] When the A-point parameter, the second angle λ and the related parameters of the tiltrotor are known, the I-point parameter can be determined according to the principle of two-dimensional rotation matrix.

[0096] The related parameters of the tiltrotor can be stored in the construction equipment or can be obtained through network query by the model of the tiltrotor.

[0097] The related parameters of the tiltrotor at least include the third distance and the fourth distance. As shown in FIG. 3, the third distance is a distance from the mounting point A of the tiltrotor to the tilt axis of the tiltrotor, denoted as TR3; and the fourth distance is a distance from the quick-change point B of the tiltrotor to the rotation axis of the tiltrotor, denoted as TR5. Optionally, the related parameters of the tiltrotor can further include: a distance TR1 from the mounting point A of the tiltrotor to the rotation axis of the tiltrotor, a distance TR2 between the mounting point A of the tiltrotor and an auxiliary mounting point A', a distance TR4 from the quick-change point B of the tiltrotor to the tilt axis of the tiltrotor, a distance TR6 between the quick-change point B of the tiltrotor and an auxiliary quick-change point B', an angle TR7 between AA' and the tilt axis, and an angle TR8 between BB' and the tilt axis.

[0098] Taking the direction from the cab facing the construction equipment as the positive direction and the Z-axis vertically upward as the positive direction, the I-point parameter can be expressed as:

[0099] Since the quick-change point B of the tiltrotor coincides with the mounting point of the bucket, the mounting point of the bucket is the mounting axis point of the bucket. Therefore, the B-point parameter is determined based on the I-point parameter, and the bucket tip parameter is calculated according to the B-point parameter. Including the following steps:

[0100] Step c1: calculating the pivot point parameter of the bucket according to the pivot point parameter of the tiltrotor, the second angle, the fourth distance and a fifth distance, wherein the fifth distance is a distance from the quick-change point of the tiltrotor to the tilt axis of the tiltrotor.

[0101] When the I-point parameter, the second angle λ and the related parameters of the tiltrotor are known, the B-point parameter can be determined according to the principle of two-dimensional rotation matrix.

[0102] Taking the direction from the cab facing the construction equipment as the positive direction and the Z-axis vertically upward as the positive direction, the B-point parameter can be expressed as:

[0103] Step c2: determining a third angle, wherein the third angle is an angle between the bottom side of the tiltrotor and the tilt axis of the tiltrotor.

[0104] The bottom side of the tilt is the line between the quick-change point B of the tilt and the auxiliary quick-change point B', that is, the third angle θ2 in the following formula is TR8 in FIG. 3.

[0105] Step c3: determining the relative position of the bucket tip of the bucket relative to the axis point of the tilt according to the third angle, the length l of the bucket, the width w of the bucket and the opening angle γ of the bucket.

[0106] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of a bucket pose provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG. 6, a coordinate system is defined: facing the bucket away from the cab, extending the right hand, the thumb pointing to the right (X axis), the index finger pointing to the cab (Y axis), and the azimuth angle from Y to Z is positive. The angle between the bucket and the Y axis is denoted as θ3=180°-γ-θ2.

[0107] Suppose the B point parameters are B(0, y b ,z b ), then the relative position of the bucket tip of the bucket relative to the axis point of the tilt (including the bucket tip midpoint coordinates, left bucket tip coordinates and right bucket tip coordinates) can be respectively represented as:

[0108] Bucket tip midpoint coordinates:

[0109] Left bucket tip coordinates:

[0110] Right bucket tip coordinates:

[0111] Step c4: position transformation is performed on the relative position, and the bucket tip parameters are determined according to the position-transformed relative position and the axis point parameters of the tilt.

[0112] The fourth angle β and the fifth angle ρ can be determined first, wherein the fourth angle is the tilt angle of the bucket around the tilt axis of the tilt, and the fifth angle is the rotation angle of the bucket around the rotation axis of the tilt; the relative position is sequentially rotated, tilted and pitched according to the fifth angle ρ, the fourth angle β and the second angle λ respectively to obtain the position-transformed relative position.

[0113] It can be understood that the second angle λ reflects the position of the tilt relative to the horizontal plane, and the fifth angle ρ and the fourth angle β reflect the position of the bucket relative to the tilt. The angles of the fifth angle ρ, the fourth angle β and the second angle λ can be 0° or not. In actual application, the sizes of the fifth angle ρ, the fourth angle β and the second angle λ can be determined by measurement.

[0114] For example, the rotation transformation can be performed according to the formula , the tilt transformation can be performed according to the formula The pitch transformation is performed according to the formula The pitch transformation is performed.

[0115] According to the relative position after the position transformation and the I point parameter, the bucket tip parameters of the excavator are determined. For example, the left bucket tip parameter is equal to the sum of the left bucket tip relative coordinates after the position transformation and the I point parameter, and the right bucket tip parameter is equal to the sum of the right bucket tip relative coordinates after the position transformation and the I point parameter.

[0116] Example 3: The functional part includes a quick-change device and a tilt device, and the functional part directly connected to the excavator bucket is the tilt device. The relationship between the mechanical arm of the excavator and the carrier is: large arm + small arm + quick-change device + tilt device + excavator bucket.

[0117] In example 3, FIG. 7 is a coordinate transmission schematic diagram provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 7, the mounting point H of the quick-change device is connected to the small arm of the excavator, the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device is connected to the connecting rod, the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device is connected to the mounting point A of the tilt device, the auxiliary quick-change point Q' of the quick-change device is connected to the auxiliary mounting point A' of the tilt device, and the quick-change point B and the auxiliary quick-change point B' of the tilt device are respectively connected to the two shaft centers of the excavator bucket. The quick-change device can realize the quick mounting and dismounting of the tilt device and the excavator bucket, and the tilt device can realize the adjustment of the pose of the excavator bucket.

[0118] Based on the definition in step S410, since the mounting point of the mechanical arm is the connection point between the small arm and the functional part, in example 3, the mounting point H of the quick-change device coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the mounting point parameter of the mechanical arm is the H point parameter. The shaft center point of the quick-change device is the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device. The mounting point A of the tilt device coincides with the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device, that is, the Q point parameter = the A point parameter, and the shaft center point of the tilt device is the intersection I of the tilt axis and the rotation axis.

[0119] According to the H point parameter, the method for calculating the I point parameter can include the following steps:

[0120] Step d1: determining a first angle and a second angle, wherein the first angle is the included angle between the bottom side of the quick-change device and the horizontal plane, and the second angle is the included angle between the tilt axis of the tilt device and the horizontal plane.

[0121] The bottom side of the quick-change device is the line between the quick-change point Q and the auxiliary quick-change point Q' of the quick-change device, and the X axis of the coordinate system is parallel to the horizontal plane. Therefore, the first angle is the included angle between QQ' and the X axis, denoted as α. The second angle is the included angle between the tilt axis of the tilt device and the horizontal plane, denoted as λ.

[0122] Optionally, the first angle α and the second angle λ can be collected by an angle sensor provided on the construction equipment.

[0123] Step d2: calculating the axis point parameter of the quick-change device according to the mounting point parameter, the first angle, the first distance and the second distance, wherein the first distance is the distance from the mounting point of the quick-change device to the bottom edge of the quick-change device, the mounting point of the quick-change device coincides with the mounting point of the mechanical arm, and the second distance is the horizontal offset from the mounting point of the quick-change device to the quick-change point of the quick-change device.

[0124] When the H point parameter, the first angle a and the related parameters of the quick-change device are known, the Q point parameter can be determined according to the two-dimensional rotation matrix principle.

[0125] The related parameters of the quick-change device can be stored in the construction equipment or can be obtained by network query through the model of the quick-change device.

[0126] The related parameters of the quick-change device at least include the first distance and the second distance. As shown in FIG. 2, the first distance is the distance from the mounting point H of the quick-change device to the bottom edge QQ' of the quick-change device, denoted as QH2; the second distance is the horizontal offset from the mounting point H of the quick-change device to the quick-change point Q of the quick-change device, denoted as QH4. Optionally, the related parameters of the quick-change device can further include the distance QH1 between the mounting point H and the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device, and the angle QH3 between the line connecting the mounting point H and the auxiliary mounting point H' of the quick-change device and the bottom edge QQ' of the quick-change device.

[0127] Therefore, taking the direction from the cab facing the construction equipment as the positive direction and the Z axis vertically upward as the positive direction, the Q point parameter can be expressed as:

[0128] Step d3: calculating the axis point parameter of the tiltrotor according to the axis point parameter of the quick-change device, the second angle, the third distance and the fourth distance, wherein the third distance is the distance from the mounting point of the tiltrotor to the tilting shaft of the tiltrotor, the mounting point of the tiltrotor coincides with the quick-change point of the quick-change device, and the fourth distance is the distance from the quick-change point of the tiltrotor to the rotating shaft of the tiltrotor.

[0129] When the Q point parameter, the second angle λ and the related parameters of the tiltrotor are known, the I point parameter can be determined according to the two-dimensional rotation matrix principle.

[0130] The related parameters of the tiltrotor can be stored in the construction equipment or can be obtained by network query through the model of the tiltrotor.

[0131] The related parameters of the tiltrotator include at least a third distance and a fourth distance. As shown in FIG. 3, the third distance is a distance from the mounting point A of the tiltrotator to the tilt axis of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR3; and the fourth distance is a distance from the quick-change point B of the tiltrotator to the rotation axis of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR5. Optionally, the related parameters of the tiltrotator can further include: a distance from the mounting point A of the tiltrotator to the rotation axis of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR1; a distance between the mounting point A and the auxiliary mounting point A' of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR2; a distance from the quick-change point B of the tiltrotator to the tilt axis of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR4; a distance between the quick-change point B and the auxiliary quick-change point B' of the tiltrotator, denoted as TR6; an angle between the AA' and the tilt axis, denoted as TR7; and an angle between the BB' and the tilt axis, denoted as TR8.

[0132] The I-point parameters can be expressed as follows, with the positive direction being from the cab to the construction equipment, and the Z-axis being vertically upward.

[0133] Since the quick-change point B of the tiltrotator coincides with the mounting point of the bucket, the mounting point of the bucket is the mounting axis point of the bucket. Therefore, the B-point parameters are determined based on the I-point parameters, and the bucket tip parameters are calculated according to the B-point parameters. Specifically, the following steps are included:

[0134] Step e1: calculating the axis point parameters of the bucket according to the axis point parameters of the tiltrotator, the second angle, the fourth distance, and the fifth distance, wherein the fifth distance is a distance from the quick-change point of the tiltrotator to the tilt axis of the tiltrotator.

[0135] In the case where the I-point parameters, the second angle λ, and the related parameters of the tiltrotator are known, the B-point parameters can be determined according to the principle of two-dimensional rotation matrix.

[0136] The B-point parameters can be expressed as follows, with the positive direction being from the cab to the construction equipment, and the Z-axis being vertically upward.

[0137] Step e2: determining a third angle, wherein the third angle is an angle between the bottom edge of the tiltrotator and the tilt axis of the tiltrotator.

[0138] The bottom edge of the tiltrotator is a line between the quick-change point B and the auxiliary quick-change point B' of the tiltrotator, i.e., the third angle θ2 in the following formula is TR8 in FIG. 3.

[0139] Step e3: determining the relative position of the bucket tip relative to the axis point of the tiltrotator according to the third angle, the length l of the bucket, the width w of the bucket, and the opening angle γ of the bucket.

[0140] The angle between the bucket and the Y-axis is expressed as: θ3=180°-γ-θ2.

[0141] Suppose the B-point parameters are B(0, y b ,zb ), the relative positions of the bucket tips with respect to the pivot point of the tilt rotor (including the middle point coordinate of the bucket tip, the left bucket tip coordinate, and the right bucket tip coordinate) can be respectively represented as:

[0142] The middle point coordinate of the bucket tip is:

[0143] The left bucket tip coordinate is:

[0144] The right bucket tip coordinate is:

[0145] Step e4: performing position transformation on the relative positions, and determining the bucket tip parameters of the excavator according to the position-transformed relative positions and the pivot point parameters of the tilt rotor.

[0146] The fourth angle β and the fifth angle ρ can be determined first, where the fourth angle is the tilt angle of the excavator around the tilt axis of the tilt rotor, and the fifth angle is the rotation angle of the excavator around the rotation axis of the tilt rotor; the relative positions are rotationally transformed according to the fifth angle ρ, are tilted according to the fourth angle β, and are pitched according to the second angle λ, to obtain the position-transformed relative positions.

[0147] For example, the rotational transformation can be performed according to the formula , the tilting transformation can be performed according to the formula , and the pitching transformation can be performed according to the formula .

[0148] The bucket tip parameters of the excavator are determined according to the position-transformed relative positions and the I-point parameters. For example, the left bucket tip parameter is equal to the sum of the position-transformed left bucket tip relative coordinate and the I-point parameters, and the right bucket tip parameter is equal to the sum of the position-transformed right bucket tip relative coordinate and the I-point parameters.

[0149] Optionally, on the basis of the above embodiment, FIG. 8 is a flowchart of another parameter determination method of a construction equipment provided in the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 8, after step S430 is executed, step S440 is further included.

[0150] S440: adjusting the pivot point of the excavator and the middle point of the bucket tip of the excavator to be located on a plumb line, to complete the calibration of the opening angle of the excavator.

[0151] FIG. 9 is a calibration diagram of an excavator provided in the embodiment. As shown in FIG. 9, the pivot point 1 and the pivot point 2 are the upper edges of the excavator, J' is the intersection of the plumb plane passing through the upper edges of the excavator and the bucket tip, the distance between the pivot point 2 and J' is the length of the excavator, and the distance between J1 and J2 is the width of the excavator. The angle θ4 between the upper edge of the excavator and the horizontal plane can be determined through the angles of TR7 and TR8.

[0152] Therefore, the calibration of the bucket opening angle is completed by adjusting the shaft center point 2 of the bucket and the midpoint of the bucket tip to be on a plumb line.

[0153] That is, the bucket opening angle γ = θ4 + 90°.

[0154] The technical solution of the embodiment of the application determines the mounting point parameters of the mechanical arm, and then calculates the shaft center point parameters of the functional component directly connected to the bucket according to the mounting point parameters, so as to determine the bucket parameters of the bucket according to the shaft center point parameters of the functional component directly connected to the bucket. The parameter determination method of the construction equipment can be applied to three cases: 1) the functional component only includes a quick-change device, 2) the functional component only includes a tilt device, and 3) the functional component includes a quick-change device and a tilt device, covering various construction equipment structures and having universality. The determined bucket parameters can provide a data basis for guiding the operation of the construction equipment, so as to reduce the operation difficulty of the construction equipment and improve the user experience. On the other hand, the calibration of the bucket opening angle can be completed by using a plumb line, which reduces the calibration difficulty and the requirement for the calibration equipment. In addition, in the case where the functional component includes a quick-change device and a tilt device, after the bucket parameters are obtained by one calculation and the calibration of the bucket opening angle is completed, even if the structure of the subsequent functional component changes, the bucket tip precision still meets the requirements without the need for recalibration.
