Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a transport device, in particular a baby carriage, having at least three wheels and having a handle for a user, wherein at least one of the at least three wheels is designed as a drive wheel which can be driven in an electric manner by means of an associated electric drive unit in order to enable a manual pushing or pulling movement of the transport device by the user to be supported at least partially in an electric manner, and wherein the electric drive unit can be adjusted by means of a torque adjustment device associated with the electric drive unit, and the transport device has a computing unit for a quality estimation of the transport device. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for estimating the mass of a transport device, in particular a baby carriage.
Background
Transport devices designed as strollers are known from the prior art, which have active support by a user in a push or pull operation via an electrically drivable drive wheel. In order to obtain the best support result, in particular to adjust the usually at least one electrically driven driving wheel of the rear axle of the buggy in a manner adapted to the user and to the load, it is crucial to know the current mass of the buggy in addition to exactly knowing the type of foundation on which the buggy is moving.
However, the mass of the pushchair is variable, in particular due to the varying equipment parts or accessories and/or the weight of at least one child to be accommodated in the pushchair. Furthermore, it is costly to detect the entire mass of the stroller including the wheels if the weight measurement should be made, for example, by means of a plurality of strain gauges, spring elements, etc., which are required for detecting slight weight-related deformations of the undercarriage of the stroller and for converting them into an electrical measurement signal proportional to the weight or mass. Furthermore, direct mass measurement at all wheel axles of the stroller by means of force sensors becomes costly not only in terms of the required wiring, but also, if necessary, in terms of wireless data transmission.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention relates to a transport device, in particular a baby carriage, having at least three wheels and having a handle for a user, wherein at least one of the at least three wheels is designed as a drive wheel which can be driven in an electric manner by means of an associated electric drive unit in order to enable a manual pushing or pulling operation of the transport device by the user to be supported at least partially in an electric manner. The electric drive unit can be regulated by means of a torque regulation device assigned to the electric drive unit, and the transport device has a calculation unit for a mass estimation of the transport device. At least one acceleration sensor is provided and a test signal can be applied to the torque control device, wherein the computing unit is designed to determine the mass of the transport device at least as a function of an acceleration signal generated by the test signal at the transport device and detected by the at least one acceleration sensor.
It is thus possible to detect the (total) mass of the transport device relatively accurately in real time or "on-line". In the context of the present description, the (total) mass is to be understood as the mass of the transport device including all accessories and the weight of at least one object or child to be transported by means of the transport device. It is possible to eliminate the otherwise necessary placement of a large number of weight sensors at different locations at the chassis of the transport device.
According to a preferred embodiment, the test signal is a sine-shaped or cosine-shaped torque signal. Due to the harmonic signal profile, the mathematical and digital complexity required for calculating the mass of the transport device is significantly simplified.
The electric drive unit preferably has an electric motor, in particular a brushless dc motor. This ensures a practically low-wear, substantially low-maintenance and excellently adjustable drive of the transport device.
The gearbox is preferably assigned to the electric drive unit. It is thus possible to flexibly adapt the torque of the electric motor to the requirements of the transport device. If necessary, a shifting device with at least one gear can be provided, in order to enable mountain operation of the transport device in addition to plain operation, for example.
In a further technically advantageous embodiment, the acceleration signal can be detected by means of at least one acceleration sensor essentially in the primary pushing or pulling direction of the transport device. Thus, the main movement direction of the transport device is first considered for the mass estimation.
According to a further advantageous embodiment, the mass of the transport device can be estimated by means of a frequency analysis implemented by the computing unit. In this connection, different numerical methods, such as discrete fourier transforms, can be used for calculating the quality.
The calculation unit for the frequency analysis preferably has a Goertzel filter. Thereby giving a particularly efficient numerical evaluation for quality estimation.
According to a technically advantageous development, the computing unit has a correlator for estimating the mass of the transport device. Thus, an evaluation method is provided which is proven and experienced from communication technology and radio technology.
The mass is preferably estimated in real time by means of a calculation unit. It is thus possible to very comfortably adjust the electrically supported push or pull operation of the transport device depending on the current situation.
According to one embodiment, at least two of the at least three wheels are designed as drive wheels, which can each be driven in an electric manner by means of at least one electric drive unit, and wherein the electric drive units can be adjusted independently of one another by means of a torque adjustment device assigned to the electric drive units. A symmetrical drive of the transport device is thus possible, wherein a so-called "diagonal tension (Schiefziehen)" in the push or pull operation of the transport device can be avoided.
Furthermore, the invention provides a method for estimating the mass of a transport device, in particular a baby carriage, having at least three wheels and having a handle for a user. At least one of the at least three wheels can be driven electrically as a drive wheel by means of an electric drive unit, which can be adjusted by means of a torque adjustment device assigned to the electric drive unit, in order to ensure that a manual pushing or pulling operation of the transport device by a user is supported at least partially electrically. A test signal for exciting the transport device in an oscillation technique is applied to the torque control device, and the mass of the transport device is estimated at least by evaluating the acceleration signal detected by the at least one acceleration sensor.
It is thereby possible to detect the current (total) mass of the transport means relatively accurately in real time without having to place a large number of weight sensors at the transport means.
In an advantageous further development of the method, the evaluation is carried out by a goertzel algorithm implemented by means of a computing unit. This ensures a numerically resource-saving or mathematically efficient digital implementation by means of the computing unit.
In the case of a further embodiment, the evaluation takes place by means of a correlation implemented by means of a computing unit. It is therefore possible to use the relevant methods which have been tested and proven for a long time, in particular in communication technology and radio technology.

Alternatively, the stroller 100 can also be constructed in a three-wheeled manner with one front wheel and two rear wheels, which can preferably be driven in an electrically powered manner.

Furthermore, the stroller 100 preferably has at least one first and one second acceleration sensor 170, 172 for indirectly estimating the mass m according to the invention by means of the computing unit 400K. The two acceleration sensors 170, 172 are used here to initially detect the acceleration a occurring in the normal pushing or pulling operation of the stroller 100y. The acceleration sensors 170, 172 may be integrated in the electric drive units 140, 142 of the two drive wheels 132, 134.
