Fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an excavator 100 according to the present embodiment. Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides an excavator 100, which specifically includes a body 101, a power device, a bucket 103 and a bucket cylinder 105.
In detail, the power device is disposed on the body 101, and one end of the power device is fixedly connected to the body 101, and the other end of the power device is hinged to the bucket 103, so as to drive the bucket 103 to move in space. The power plant specifically includes a boom 107, an arm 111, a boom cylinder 109, and an arm cylinder 113. The movable arm 107 is arranged on the body 101, one end of the arm 111 is connected with the movable arm 107, the other end of the arm is hinged to the bucket 103, one end of the arm cylinder 109 is arranged on the body 101, the other end of the arm cylinder is in transmission connection with the movable arm 107 and used for driving the movable arm 107 to move, one end of the arm cylinder 113 is arranged on the movable arm 107, and the other end of the arm cylinder is in transmission connection with the arm 111 and used for driving the arm 111 to move so as to drive. The engagement of the boom 107, the arm 111, the boom cylinder 109, and the arm cylinder 113 allows the bucket 103 to perform work such as excavation at various positions.
In detail, one end of the bucket cylinder 105 is connected with the power device, and the other end of the bucket cylinder is in transmission connection with the bucket 103, so as to drive the bucket 103 to rotate relative to the power device, so that the angle position of the bucket 103 relative to the power device is adjustable, and the position angle of the bucket 103 is conveniently adjusted, so as to meet the operation requirements of the bucket 103 on each angle position, for example, when materials are already contained in the bucket 103, the bucket 103 needs to be ensured to be horizontal, so as to avoid the occurrence of phenomena such as blanking.
In the prior art, the adjustment of the angle position of the bucket 103 is often completed through the cooperative matching of the movable arm 107, the arm 111 and the bucket 103, the operation is complex and not beneficial to novice operation, and when some excavation objects are objects which are easy to lose like muddy water, and when the movable arm 107 and the arm 111 are controlled to move, the angle of the bucket 103 is slightly poor, so that a certain amount of material is lost, and the excavation efficiency is affected. Thus, the present embodiment improves the structure of the excavator 100 by adding the detection device for detecting the movement data of the bucket 103 or the movement data of the power unit (i.e., the boom cylinder 109 and the arm cylinder 113) and the bucket cylinder 105 and the controller 133; the controller 133 is disposed on the body 101, electrically connected to the detecting device, and configured to receive the motion data and determine a preset motion mode of the bucket cylinder 105 when the bucket 103 moves to a preset position, and the controller 133 is further configured to control the bucket cylinder 105 to extend and retract according to the preset motion mode to drive the bucket 103 to move until the bucket 103 moves to the preset position. When the angle position of the bucket 103 is adjusted through the arrangement and the matching of the detection device and the controller 133, the adjustment can be realized by controlling the extension and retraction of one part of the bucket cylinder 105, so that the operation difficulty can be reduced, the occurrence of operation incoordination can be avoided, and the efficiency and the quality of each work of the bucket 103 can be ensured. The modified parts of the excavator 100 will be described in detail below, but the unmodified parts are the same as the existing excavator 100 in structure, and the detailed description of the embodiment is omitted.
FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a portion of the excavator 100 according to the present embodiment; fig. 3 is a schematic partial diagram of the excavator 100 according to the present embodiment. Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in the present embodiment, the detecting device may be specifically selected as a horizontal angle sensor 117. And the horizontal angle sensor 117 is disposed on a sidewall of the bucket 103 for detecting a real-time position angle of the bucket 103, so as to know a specific position state of the bucket 103. When the detection device is the horizontal angle sensor 117, the controller 133 is electrically connected to the horizontal angle sensor 117, and the controller 133 is configured to receive the real-time position angle and determine a preset motion pattern of the bucket cylinder 105 when the bucket 103 moves to the preset position, so as to facilitate subsequent control of the bucket cylinder 105. After the preset action mode is determined, the controller 133 is configured to control the bucket cylinder 105 to extend and retract according to the preset action mode to drive the bucket 103 to move until the real-time position angle detected by the horizontal angle sensor 117 is the position angle of the bucket 103 at the preset position, so that the bucket 103 is kept at the preset position in real time.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the preset position may be a horizontal position, and may also be a fixed angle position. Here, the fixed angular position means that the bucket 103 is fixed at an arbitrary angle other than the horizontal position and does not change. Of course, in other embodiments, the selection of the preset position may also be adjusted, and this embodiment is not limited.
In detail, referring to fig. 2 again, in the present embodiment, when the preset position is the horizontal position, in order to prevent the material from falling when the excavator transfers the material, the bucket 103 must be kept in the horizontal state as far as possible, that is, the bucket needs to be kept in the horizontal position. At this time, by setting the horizontal angle sensor 117, data of a real-time position angle of the bucket 103 in the horizontal direction can be acquired in real time, and the data of the real-time position angle can be transmitted to the controller 133. The controller 133, after receiving the real-time position angle data, can determine the specific angle of the bucket 103 at that time, and calculate the preset action mode of the bucket cylinder 105 when the bucket 103 is adjusted to be horizontal (i.e., how the bucket cylinder 105 extends and retracts to reach the preset position); when the controller 133 determines how to adjust, it may send an action command to the bucket cylinder 105, and after receiving the command, the bucket cylinder 105 extends and retracts according to a preset action mode to drive the bucket 103 to move until the horizontal angle sensor 117 detects the horizontal position of the bucket 103. That is, by such an arrangement, when bucket 103 needs to be kept horizontal, bucket cylinder 105 can be controlled to extend and retract by horizontal angle sensor 117 provided on bucket 103 in cooperation with controller 133, so that bucket 103 is adjusted to the horizontal position. That is, with this arrangement, the horizontal position of the bucket 103 can be ensured only by adjusting the extension and retraction of the bucket cylinder 105, and the driving cooperation between the boom cylinder 109 and the arm cylinder 113 is not required, so that the work load can be reduced, the operation can be made simpler and more convenient, and the work efficiency and quality can be ensured.
In detail, referring to fig. 3, when the preset position is a fixed angle position, under some working conditions, it is required that the bucket 103 always keeps a certain angle with the horizontal plane, which can be realized by this function. The specific operation process comprises the following steps: the target position angle is recorded, for example, by detecting the target position angle when the bucket 103 is at the preset position by the horizontal angle sensor 117, and then the information of the target position angle is transmitted to the controller 133. The controller 133 records the information of the position angle at this time, and sets it as the target position angle. Then, when the angle of the bucket 103 changes due to the movement of the boom 107 and the arm 111, the controller 133 may send a predetermined movement signal to the bucket cylinder 105 to move to the target position angle, so that the bucket 103 may be always kept at the predetermined angle with respect to the horizontal plane. That is, when the preset position is the fixed angle position, the information that the bucket 103 is located at the target position angle needs to be collected first, and then the information is used as the target angle information, so that when the position of the bucket 103 deviates from the target angle information, the controller 133 controls the bucket cylinder 105 to drive the bucket 103 to move. Through the arrangement, the adjustment of any position of the bucket 103 can be realized by controlling the extension and retraction of one bucket oil cylinder 105, so that the operation difficulty can be reduced, the occurrence of operation incoordination is avoided, and the efficiency and the quality of various operations of the bucket 103 are ensured.
Fig. 4 is a schematic partial diagram of the excavator 100 according to the present embodiment. Referring to fig. 4, since the bucket 103 needs to contact an excavation object when working, the sensor provided thereon is easily damaged, and the wiring needs to be specially protected, and the functional stability is easily affected by the working condition. Thus, in the present embodiment, detection means may be further provided to the boom cylinder 109, the arm cylinder 113, and the bucket cylinder 105 as needed for detecting the real-time expansion and contraction amounts of the boom cylinder 109, the arm cylinder 113, and the bucket cylinder 105. At this time, the controller 133 is configured to calculate a preset expansion amount of the bucket cylinder 105 when the bucket 103 is located at a preset position based on the real-time expansion amounts of the boom cylinder 109 and the arm cylinder 113, and to control the bucket cylinder 105 to expand and contract according to the preset expansion amount. That is, by such an arrangement, it is not necessary to control the boom 107, the arm 111, and the bucket 103 to move to the preset positions at the same time, and it is only necessary to adjust the bucket 103 to the preset position when the positions of the boom 107 and the arm 111 are fixed, thereby effectively simplifying the operation procedure.
In detail, the detection means includes a first stroke sensor, a second stroke sensor, and a third stroke sensor. The first stroke sensor is disposed at the boom cylinder 109, that is, the boom cylinder stroke sensor 127, and may be configured to detect a real-time expansion amount of the boom cylinder 109. The second stroke sensor is disposed on arm cylinder 113, i.e., arm cylinder stroke sensor 129, which can be used to detect the real-time amount of extension and retraction of arm cylinder 113. The third stroke sensor is disposed on the bucket cylinder 105, that is, the stroke sensor of the bucket cylinder 105, and is configured to detect a real-time expansion amount of the bucket cylinder 105.
Therefore, the position of the excavator boom 107 and the arm 111 at this time can be calculated by the boom cylinder stroke sensor 127 and the arm cylinder stroke sensor 129.
