Description
Die Erfindung "Vorrichtung zur Regelung der Rückwärtsfahrt von Kraft fahrzeugen mit Anhängern" - kurz Rückfahrregelung - betrifft eine Vorrich tung zur Regelung der Rückwärtsfahrt entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. Ihr liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, daß ein Zugfahrzeug mit An hänger stabil rückwärts um eine Kurve fährt, wenn Lenkeinschlag und Po sition von Zugfahrzeug und Anhänger zueinander dieselben Werte anneh men, wie beim Durchfahren derselben Kurve vorwärts.The invention "device for regulating the backward movement of force vehicles with trailers "- briefly reversing control - concerns a Vorrich device for regulating the reverse travel according to the preamble of Claim 1. It is based on the idea that a towing vehicle with an trailer stably reverses around a curve when steering lock and bottom sition of towing vehicle and trailer assume the same values to each other as when driving the same curve forward.
In der Druckschrift 34 30 074 wird eine Vorrichtung beschrieben, bei der die Lenkbewegung mechanisch von der Zugmaschine auf die lenkbare Achse des Anhängers übertragen wird. Die Druckschrift 35 38 338 be schreibt eine Einrichtung, bei der die lenkbare Achse des Anhängers nach vorgegebenen elektrischen Sollwerten bewegt wird. Und nach 23 39 600 wird der Einschlagwinkel der gelenkten Räder des Zugfahrzeuges anhand von gemessenen Winkeln errechnet.In the document 34 30 074 a device is described in which the steering movement mechanically from the tractor to the steerable Axle of the trailer is transmitted. The document 35 38 338 be writes a facility where the steerable axle of the trailer follows predetermined electrical setpoints is moved. And after 23 39 600 the steering angle of the steered wheels of the towing vehicle is used calculated from measured angles.
Bei den drei aufgeführten Vorrichtungen sind entsprechende Anbauteile an ein- und/oder zweiachsigen Anhängern erforderlich. Demgegenüber liegt dieser Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine geregelte Rückwärtsfahrt oh ne Zusatzausstattung der Anhänger möglich zu machen. Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs l gelöst. Zweckmäßige Ausgestal tungen dazu sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Appropriate attachments are attached to the three devices listed single and / or two-axle trailers required. On the other hand This invention has the object of a regulated backward movement oh To make additional equipment of the trailer possible. This task is solved by the features of claim 1. Appropriate design Information on this is given in the subclaims.
Dadurch, daß die Anhänger nicht mit Zusatzeinrichtungen ausgestattet wer den müssen und keine Signalübertragung zwischen Anhänger und Zugfahr zeug erforderlich ist, ergeben sich folgende Hauptvorteile: Erstens können alle existierenden Anhänger mit dem System zusammenarbeiten. Zweitens besteht keine Notwendigkeit, daß sich verschiedene Hersteller von Zug fahrzeugen und Anhängern auf einen gemeinsamen Standard einigen müs sen.The fact that the trailer is not equipped with additional devices the must and no signal transmission between trailer and train driver The main advantages are: First, you can all existing trailers work with the system. Secondly there is no need for different train manufacturers vehicles and trailers must agree on a common standard sen.
Die Erfindung wird nun anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels erläutert. Es soll sich um eine Zugmaschine mit zweiachsigem Anhänger handeln, bei der die relative Positionsbestimmung von Zugfahrzeug zu Anhänger durch eine außermittige Abstandsmessung per Ultraschall an zwei Punkten erfolgt (Fig. 1, 1 1 und 1 2. Der Einschlagwinkel (Fig. 1, α) der gelenkten Räder wird durch ein Potentiometer in eine elektrische Spannung umgesetzt, die Geschwindigkeit (v) wird von vorhandenen Sensoren abgegriffen. Die Ab stände, der Winkel und die Geschwindigkeit werden digitalisiert und einer Mikroprozessorschaltung mit nichtflüchtigem Speicher zugeführt (Fig. 2, 1 1, 1 2, α und v). Der Kurvenradius wird durch ein Potentiometer vorgegeben und ebenfalls der Mikroprozessorschaltung zugeführt und digitalisiert (Fig. 2, β). Über einen analogen Ausgang wird die modifizierte Servolen kung angesteuert (Fig. 2, x). Kuppelt der Fahrer einen Anhänger an, betä tigt er den Reset-Taster und fährt anschließend wie gewohnt vorwärts. Die Rückfahrregelung speichert nun in kurzen Zeitabständen den Einschlag winkel der gelenkten Räder des Zugfahrzeugs (α) und die relative Position von Zugfahrzeug zu Anhänger (1 1 und 1 2) und die Geschwindigkeit (v) beim Einlenken in eine Kurve, bei Kurvenfahrt mit konstantem Radius und beim Auslenken aus einer Kurve. Für eine geregelte Rückwärtsfahrt müssen sich Zugfahrzeug und Anhänger in einer stabilen Ausgangsposition befinden, d. h. die aktuellen Werte von 1 1 und 1 2 müssen gespeicherten Werten entspre chen. Der Fahrer stellt nun eine schwache oder starke, links- oder rechts seitige Kurvenkrümmung mit dem Potentiometer mit Mittelstellung ein und fährt rückwärts; siehe hierzu Fig. 3. Die Rückfahrregelung wird mit Ein legen des Rückwärtsganges aktiviert. Ein maximaler Potentiometeraus schlag nach rechts bedeutet, daß die Rückfahrregelung mit dem größten gespeicherten Einschlagwinkel der gelenkten Räder (α) für Kurvenfahrt nach rechts arbeiten soll u.s.w. Nun müssen die Werte für eine entspre chende Vorwärtskurvenfahrt im Speicher gesucht werden. Eine Kurve mit einem bestimmten Radius kann schnell und langsam durchfahren werden. Bei schneller Fahrt muß schneller eingelenkt werden. Dies muß bei den Lenkwinkel- und Abstandsänderungen berücksichtigt werden. Wird der Lenkwinkel für Vor- und Rückwärtsfahrt in gleichbleibenden Zeitabständen Δt gemessen, so gilt Δαrück = Δα.(vrück : v). Die Erfassung der Änderung erfolgt durch die Messung in gleichbleibenden Zeitabständen (Δt). Gleiches gilt für die Längenmessungen: Δ1rück = Δ1.(vrück : v). Die Rückfahrregelung steuert nun die Servolenkung so an, daß die gelenkten Räder für jede Zeiteinheit Δt den errechneten Lenkwinkel αrück annehmen. Beginnt der Anhänger einer zu stark gekrümmten Bahn zu folgen, so müssen die ge lenkten Räder des Zugfahrzeugs etwas weniger eingeschlagen werden, be ginnt der Anhänger einer zu schwach gekrümmten Bahn zu folgen, so müs sen die gelenkten Räder etwas stärker eingeschlagen werden. Diese Rege lung erfolgt über die errechneten und gemessenen Werte für 1 1rück, 1 2rück, 1 1 und 1 1. Ändert der Fahrer die Potentiometereinstellung, beginnt der Vor gang von Neuem. Fährt der Fahrzeugzug geradeaus rückwärts (Potentiometer in Mittelstellung), so ist αrück = 0 und 1 1rück = 1 2rück. Für Fahrten ohne Anhänger ist die Rückfahrregelung abschaltbar. The invention will now be explained using an exemplary embodiment. It should be a tractor with two-axle trailer, in which the relative positioning of the towing vehicle to trailer by an eccentric distance measurement using ultrasound at two points. Occurs (Fig. 1, 1 1 and 1 2 The turning angle (Fig. 1, α) of the steered wheels is implemented by a potentiometer into an electrical voltage, the speed (v) is taken from existing sensors. the Ab stands, the angle and speed are digitized and a microprocessor circuit with nonvolatile memory is supplied (Fig. 2, 1 1, 1 2 , α and v). The radius of the curve is specified by a potentiometer and also fed to the microprocessor circuit and digitized ( Fig. 2, β). The modified servo steering is controlled via an analog output ( Fig. 2, x) If the driver hits a trailer, he presses the reset button and then drives forward as usual un at short intervals the turning angle of the steered wheels of the towing vehicle (α) and the relative position of the towing vehicle to the trailer ( 1 1 and 1 2 ) and the speed (v) when turning into a curve, when cornering with a constant radius and when deflecting from a curve. For a controlled reverse drive, the towing vehicle and trailer must be in a stable starting position, ie the current values of 1 1 and 1 2 must correspond to stored values. The driver now sets a weak or strong curve on the left or right side with the potentiometer with the central position and drives backwards; see Fig. 3. The reversing control is activated when the reverse gear is engaged. A maximum potentiometer deflection to the right means that the reversing control should work with the largest stored steering angle of the steered wheels (α) for cornering to the right, etc. Now the values for a corresponding forward curve driving must be searched in the memory. A curve with a certain radius can be passed quickly and slowly. When driving fast you have to turn in faster. This must be taken into account when changing the steering angle and distance. If the steering angle for forward and reverse travel is measured at constant time intervals Δt, then Δα back = Δα. (V back : v) applies. The change is recorded by measuring at constant time intervals (Δt). The same applies to the length measurements: Δ1 back = Δ1. (V back : v). The reversing control now controls the power steering so that the steered wheels assume the calculated steering angle α back for each time unit Δt. If the trailer begins to follow a path that is too curved, the steered wheels of the towing vehicle have to be turned a little less, if the trailer starts to follow a path that is curved too weakly, the steered wheels have to be turned a little more. This control is based on the calculated and measured values for 1 1 back , 1 2 back , 1 1 and 1 1 . If the driver changes the potentiometer setting, the process begins again. If the vehicle train goes straight backwards (potentiometer in the middle position), α back = 0 and 1 1 back = 1 2 back . The reversing control can be switched off for trips without a trailer.
Das beschriebene Verfahren ist für einachsige Anhänger identisch. Die Position von Zugfahrzeug und Anhänger zueinander kann auch über eine Winkelmessung in der Anhängerkupplung erfolgen. Zur Sicherheit werden Kupplung, Brems- und Gaspedal vom Fahrer betätigt.The procedure described is identical for single-axle trailers. The Position of towing vehicle and trailer to each other can also be done via a Angle measurement in the trailer coupling. Be for security Clutch, brake and accelerator pedal operated by the driver.
