The steps of the method shown in fig. 1 are described in detail below based on the hardware architecture shown in fig. 3:
as shown in fig. 1, in step S1, a rudder angle setting command is acquired, and it is determined whether or not the rudder angle setting value in the rudder angle setting command is within the rudder equipment deflectable range.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, in this step, the rudder angle setting instruction may be obtained by an upper computer and then transmitted to the decision mechanism through the controller, or the rudder angle setting instruction may be obtained by the decision mechanism. After the rudder angle setting instruction is acquired, judging whether the rudder angle setting value in the rudder angle setting instruction is within the range of the rudder equipment capable of deflecting further comprises the following steps:
if the rudder angle set value is not in the range of the rudder equipment which can deflect, a reset signal is fed back; receiving a response signal aiming at the reset signal, and if the response signal is the reset rudder angle, taking the reset rudder angle as a new rudder angle set value; and if the response signal is that the rudder angle is not reset, taking the maximum rudder angle in the current rudder angle deflection direction as the rudder angle set value.
The deflectable range of the rudder device is [ -alpha, alpha ], and the rotatable angle of the steering engine is 2 alpha. For example, at this time, it is assumed that the steering engine of the smart ship can rotate 70 degrees, the middle position 35 degrees is set to a value of 0, the left and right are-35 degrees and 35 degrees, respectively, and the range of the rudder equipment capable of deflecting is [ -35 degrees, 35 degrees ].
As shown in fig. 1, in step S2, if the rudder angle setting value is within the rudder equipment deflectable range, the hydraulic pump motor and the hydraulic pump are activated to rotate the steering engine.

As shown in fig. 1, in step S3, when the steering engine is in a steady rotation state, it is determined whether the rotational angular velocity of the rudder blade is greater than a rotational speed threshold value.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the determining whether the rotation angular velocity of the rudder blade is greater than the rotation speed threshold in the step further includes:
and if the rotating angular speed of the rudder blade is larger than the rotating speed threshold value, a deceleration command is sent out for controlling the rotating angular speed of the rudder blade to be reduced.
As shown in fig. 1, in step S4, if the rotational angular velocity of the rudder blade is not greater than the rotational speed threshold value, it is determined whether the rotational angle of the rudder blade reaches the rudder angle set value.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the determining whether the rotation angle of the rudder blade reaches the rudder angle setting value in the step further includes:
and if the rotation angle of the rudder blade does not reach the rudder angle set value, keeping the steering engine in a stable rotation state until the rotation angle of the rudder blade reaches the rudder angle set value.
As shown in fig. 1, in step S5, if the rotation angle of the rudder blade reaches the rudder angle setting value, the hydraulic pump motor and the hydraulic pump are stopped, and the execution of the rudder angle setting command is completed.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, after the step of executing the rudder angle setting command, the method further includes:
s6: whether a new rudder angle setting command is received is detected, and if the new rudder angle setting command is received, steps S1 to S5 are executed.
According to the above-mentioned method of the present invention,
fig. 4 is a logic diagram of an automated control system of a rudder equipment based on a PLC in fig. 2 according to another embodiment of the present invention, wherein the steering of the steering engine is logically determined by an algorithm carried inside the PLC according to a current rudder angle and a rudder angle set value in an automated control process, so as to provide a rotation direction of the steering engine, and as shown in fig. 4, the logical determination process is as follows:
firstly, a decision mechanism of the intelligent ship makes a decision of a rudder angle deflection angle according to sensing information acquired by a sensing mechanism, and main parameters when the rudder angle is controlled are as follows: the steering wheel is in the judgement of position, the judgement of host computer rudder angle setting value, PLC procedure in to the upper limit of rudder blade angle and a given value of lower limit when the power-on starts, and when control system power-on back, the host computer assigns the instruction of deflecting, and the numerical value that conveys back according to rudder blade angle sensor this moment contrasts with the instruction of deflecting that the host computer assigned. Still taking the above-mentioned 35 degrees deflection angle as an example, if the steering wheel had been in 35 degrees at this moment and the instruction that the host computer was given still is the rotation right this moment can carry out the police dispatch newspaper, and the steering wheel does not move.
Further, whether a rudder angle set value (namely a given rudder angle) given by the decision mechanism is within a deflectable range of rudder equipment is judged, if so, the steering engine is started, and the steering engine in the embodiment adopts a hydraulic pump motor; and if the set rudder angle is not in the range of the deflectable rudder equipment, sending a signal to the intelligent ship information integration platform to require resetting the rudder angle. After that, whether the rudder angle is reset or not needs to be judged, if the rudder angle is reset, the hydraulic motor of the steering engine is started, and if the information integration platform is judged not to reset the rudder angle, the rudder angle is set to be the maximum rudder angle of the deflection direction, and then the hydraulic motor of the steering engine is started.
After the hydraulic pump motor is started, judging whether the starting frequency of the hydraulic pump motor is more than or equal to three times (namely a first preset frequency), and if the starting frequency of the hydraulic pump motor is more than or equal to three times, sending out an alarm signal of motor failure; if the starting times of the hydraulic pump motor is judged to be less than three times, whether the hydraulic pump motor is normally started is further judged, if yes, the hydraulic pump motor is maintained to stably run, and a hydraulic pump of the steering engine is started. And if the hydraulic pump motor is judged not to be normally started, restarting the hydraulic pump motor, and carrying out the judgment process II.
After the hydraulic pump is started, whether the starting times of the hydraulic pump are more than or equal to three times (namely, the second preset times) needs to be continuously judged, and if yes, a hydraulic pump fault alarm signal is sent out; if the starting frequency of the hydraulic pump is judged to be less than three times, whether the hydraulic pump works normally is continuously judged, if the hydraulic pump is judged to be started normally, whether the current servo oil pressure meets the working condition of the steering gear is continuously judged, and if the current servo oil pressure meets the working condition of the steering gear, the current state is maintained to run stably, so that the steering gear rotates stably; if the current servo oil pressure is judged not to meet the working conditions of the rudder equipment, the stable operation of the hydraulic pump is maintained, the servo oil pressure is stably lifted, and whether the current servo oil pressure meets the working conditions of the rudder equipment or not is judged in a circulating mode at a fixed period; and if the hydraulic pump is judged not to be normally started, restarting the hydraulic pump, and carrying out the judgment process of the third step.
Judging whether the rotation angular speed of the current rudder blade is too high or not under the state that the rudder stably keeps rotating stably, and if not, continuously judging whether the rudder rotates to a given angle or not; if the current rudder blade rotation angular velocity is judged to be too fast, the steering engine performs deceleration braking, and whether the rudder blade rotation angular velocity is too fast is judged in a circulating manner in the process; if the rudder is judged to rotate to the rudder angle set value, the hydraulic pump motor stops, the hydraulic pump stops, and the steering engine keeps the current angle unchanged; and if the steering engine is judged not to rotate to the set rudder angle value, continuing to keep the steering engine rotating stably, and judging whether the rudder rotates to the set rudder angle value again.
And fifthly, when the steering engine rotates to a rudder angle set value, after the hydraulic pump motor stops and the hydraulic pump stops, judging whether a new rudder angle setting instruction is received, and returning to the previous layer if the new rudder angle setting instruction is not received, namely the hydraulic pump motor is in a stop state and the hydraulic pump is in a stop state.
