Fig. 5 illustrates a method of controlling the trowel of the present invention. The trowelling machine comprises two trowelling disk mechanisms 20 which can rotate oppositely and are adjacently arranged at the left and the right, and two swing driving mechanisms which respectively drive the two trowelling disk mechanisms 20 to swing. In the technical solution of the present invention, the two swabbing mechanisms 20 rotating in opposite directions mean that the two swabbing mechanisms 20 rotate in opposite directions, the left swabbing mechanism 20 rotates clockwise, and the right swabbing mechanism 20 rotates counterclockwise, or vice versa.
The control method comprises the following steps: and receiving an operation instruction input by a user through a remote controller. After receiving an operation instruction, the controller establishes signal connection with a trowelling machine controller and sends a corresponding operation control signal, and the trowelling machine controller responds to the received operation control signal, and respectively drives at least one of the trowelling disk mechanisms to rotate and at least one of the two swing driving mechanisms to swing so as to change an included angle between at least one of the trowelling disk mechanisms and a plane to be machined, and thus the trowelling machine is controlled to move.
In one possible example, the operation instruction sent by the user is a forward instruction, and after the trowelling machine receives a forward control signal sent by a remote controller, the trowelling machine respectively controls the two swing driving mechanisms to move so as to execute forward control. Specifically, the forward control signal controls the first swing driver sub-mechanism of one swing driver mechanism to drive the left side of the erasing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to the left high and the right low state, and the forward control signal controls the first swing driver sub-mechanism of the other swing driver mechanism to drive the right side of the erasing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to the right high and the left low state.
In one possible example, the operation instruction sent by the user is a back instruction. The trowelling machine receives a backward control signal sent by the remote controller and respectively controls the two swing drivers to move so as to execute backward control. Specifically, with respect to the forward command, the reverse control signal controls the first swing drive sub-mechanism of one swing drive mechanism to drive the left roulette mechanism 20 to swing laterally to the low-left and high-right state, and the reverse control signal controls the first swing drive sub-mechanism of the other swing drive mechanism to drive the right roulette mechanism 20 to swing laterally to the high-left and low-right state.
In summary, when the forward command or the backward command is executed, the first swing drive sub-mechanisms of the two swing drive mechanisms respectively drive the two wiper mechanisms 20 to swing in opposite directions in the first direction. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that when the rotation direction of the roulette mechanism is changed, the specific swing direction in the first direction of the first sub-drive mechanism of the two swing drive mechanisms may be changed when the forward or backward control is performed.
By applying the technical scheme of the invention, the remote controller receives the forward command by sending the forward command to the remote controller, and then sends forward control signals to control one swing driving mechanism to drive the left swabbing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to the state of high left and low right, and control the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right swabbing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to the state of high right and low left, so that the inner side friction force of the two swabbing mechanisms 20 is increased, the driving force is forward, and the trowel machine is driven by the resultant force of the two swabbing mechanisms 20 to move forward. Similarly, by sending a back command to the remote controller, the remote controller receives the back command and further sends a back control signal to control one swing driving mechanism to drive the left trowel mechanism 20 to swing horizontally to a state of low left and high right, and control the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right trowel mechanism 20 to swing horizontally to a state of high left and low right, so that the friction force of the outer sides of the two trowel mechanisms 20 is increased, and the driving force is backward, and the trowel machine is driven by the resultant force of the two trowel mechanisms 20 to move backward. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the two trowelling disk mechanisms are respectively controlled to swing through the swing driving mechanism, so that the contact position of the trowelling disk mechanism and the substitute processing plane is changed, and the trowelling machine executes forward or backward operation by means of friction force.
According to the technical scheme, an operator does not need to sit on the trowelling machine to operate the moving operation of the trowelling machine, so that the weight of the trowelling machine during the whole use is reduced, the trowelling machine can be suitable for trowelling work after initial setting is processed, the ground is trowelled and finished, and concrete is prevented from cracking. Meanwhile, the riding space and the operating space of operators are saved, and the volume of the trowelling machine can be reduced appropriately, so that the trowelling machine can be suitable for more working occasions. And the labor consumption can be reduced due to the adoption of the operation mode of the remote controller.
In one possible example, the operation instruction sent by the user is a right-line instruction, and after the trowelling machine receives a right-line control signal sent by the remote controller, the trowelling machine respectively controls the two swing driving mechanisms to move so as to execute right-line control. The right row control signal controls one swing driving mechanism to drive the left wiping disk mechanism 20 to swing longitudinally to a state of high front and low back, and the right row control signal controls the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right wiping disk mechanism 20 to swing longitudinally to a state of low front and high back. When the trowelling machine is used, a right-going instruction is sent to the remote controller, the remote controller can receive the right-going instruction and further send a right-going control signal, so that the left trowelling mechanism 20 longitudinally swings to a state that the front part is high and the rear part is low, the right trowelling mechanism 20 transversely swings to a state that the front part is low and the rear part is high, the rear friction force of the left trowelling mechanism 20 is increased, the front friction force of the right trowelling mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is rightward, and the trowelling machine is driven to move rightward by the combined force of the two trowelling mechanisms 20.
In one possible example, the operation command sent by the user is a left-going command, and the trowelling machine receives a left-going control signal sent by the remote controller and respectively controls the two swing driving machines to move so as to execute the left-going control. The left control signal controls one swing driving mechanism to drive the left erasing mechanism 20 to swing longitudinally to a state of low front and high back, and the left control signal controls the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right erasing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to a state of high front and low back. When the trowelling machine is used, a left-going instruction is sent to the remote controller, the remote controller can receive the left-going instruction and further send a left-going control signal, so that the left trowelling mechanism 20 swings to a state that the front part is low and the back part is high, the right trowelling mechanism 20 swings to a state that the front part is high and the back part is low, the friction force of the front side of the left trowelling mechanism 20 is increased, the friction force of the back side of the right trowelling mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is leftward, and the trowelling machine is driven to move leftward by the combined force of the two trowelling mechanisms 20.
In summary, when a right-hand command or a left-hand command is executed, the second swing driving sub-mechanisms of the two swing driving mechanisms respectively drive the two floating disc mechanisms 20 to swing in opposite directions in the second direction, and the swing driving mechanisms respectively control the two floating disc mechanisms to swing, so as to change the contact positions of the working surfaces of the floating disc mechanisms and the plane to be machined, that is, change the included angle between the working surfaces of the floating disc mechanisms and the plane to be machined, so that the trowelling machine executes right-hand or left-hand operation by means of friction force. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that when the rotation direction of the roulette mechanism is changed, the specific swing direction in the second direction of the second sub-drive mechanism of the two swing drive mechanisms may be changed when the right-hand or left-hand control is performed.
In one possible example, the operation instruction sent by the user is a right-turn instruction, and the trowelling machine receives a right-turn control signal sent by the remote controller and respectively controls the two swing drivers to move so as to execute right-turn control. The right-turn control signal controls one swing driving mechanism to drive the left erasing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to a state of high left and low right, and the right-turn control signal controls the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right erasing mechanism 20 to swing transversely to a state of high left and low right. When the trowelling machine is used, a right-turning instruction is sent to the remote controller, the remote controller can receive the right-turning instruction and further send a right-turning control signal, so that the left trowelling disk mechanism 20 and the right trowelling disk mechanism 20 transversely swing to a high-left and low-right state, the right friction force of the left trowelling disk mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is upward, the right friction force of the right trowelling disk mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is downward, a moment for enabling the trowelling machine to clockwise rotate rightwards is generated, and the trowelling machine is driven to turn rightwards.
In one possible example, the operation instruction sent by the user is a left-turn instruction, and the trowelling machine receives a left-turn control signal sent by the remote controller and respectively controls the two swing driving machines to move so as to execute left-turn control. The left-turn control signal controls one swing driving mechanism to drive the left wiping disk mechanism 20 to swing transversely to a state of low left and high right, and the left-turn control signal controls the other swing driving mechanism to drive the right wiping disk mechanism 20 to swing transversely to a state of low left and high right. When the trowelling machine is used, a left-turning instruction is sent to the remote controller, the remote controller can receive the left-turning instruction and further send a left-turning control signal, so that the left trowelling disk mechanism 20 and the right trowelling disk mechanism 20 transversely swing to a state that the left is low and the right is high, the left friction force of the left trowelling disk mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is downward, the left friction force of the right trowelling disk mechanism 20 is increased, the driving force is upward, a moment for enabling the trowelling machine to rotate anticlockwise left is generated, and the left-turning motion of the trowelling machine is driven.
In summary, when a right-turn command or a left-turn command is executed, the first swing driving sub-mechanism of at least one of the two swing driving mechanisms drives the corresponding trowel mechanism 20 to swing in the first direction, so as to change the contact position between the working surface of the trowel mechanism and the machining-substitute plane, that is, change the included angle between the working surface of the trowel mechanism and the machining-substitute plane, and enable the trowel machine to execute a right-turn operation or a left-turn operation by means of friction. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that when the direction of rotation of the roulette mechanism is changed, the specific swing direction in the first direction of the first drive sub-mechanism of the two swing drive mechanisms may be changed when the right-turn or left-turn control is performed.
In the present invention, the two swabbing mechanisms 20 rotating in opposite directions in the above embodiment mean that the left swabbing mechanism 20 rotates clockwise, and the right swabbing mechanism 20 rotates counterclockwise. As an embodiment equivalent to the above embodiment, the left swabbing mechanism 20 may be rotated counterclockwise and the right swabbing mechanism 20 may be rotated clockwise, which corresponds to the front-back inversion of the above embodiment, and as an example shown in fig. 4, the forward control method of the embodiment is the reverse control method of the embodiment in fig. 4, the reverse control method of the embodiment is the forward control method of the embodiment in fig. 4, the right turn control method of the embodiment is the left turn control method of the embodiment in fig. 4, and the right turn control method of the embodiment is the left turn control method of the embodiment in fig. 4.
