Description

AGV driving control method and system
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of AGV control, in particular to an AGV running control method and system.
Background
Unmanned transport vehicles (AGVs) have found wide application in factory transport of materials. For most factories, the beat of the transported materials is not required to be very accurate, namely, the process is carried out without delay. However, some factories are not so strict in material transportation beat, and the 'minute and second difference' is required, so that high requirements are put on AGV motion control.
The following scenario is not a matter: there is a factory line with 10 unevenly distributed station segments, the beat between each station segment being approximately 60 seconds, the AGV needs to walk through each station segment to transport the material, but the time taken must be less than 1 second because if one station segment is more than 1 second, the accumulated error of 10 station segments may be more than 1 minute. For some production lines, especially automotive production lines, which are a must-be minute-to-minute error is unacceptable.
In order to ensure that the AGV walks each station section with different distances within the specified time, if the AGV runs at a constant speed by a simple method of dividing the distance by the time, the AGV always has larger errors due to some errors and other factors such as the ground because of no real-time feedback, and obviously, the constant-speed running is a less accurate control method.
Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing driving control mode of the AGV to meet the requirement of the material transportation beat.

Detailed Description
The conception, specific structure, and technical effects produced by the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments and the drawings to fully understand the objects, aspects, and effects of the present application. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows an AGV driving control method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the method includes the following steps:
step S100, acquiring standard driving time length of each station section in the production line; the production line comprises a plurality of station sections, and landmark cards are arranged at the starting positions and the ending positions of the station sections;
step 200, controlling the AGV to run along a production line, and determining the actual running duration of the AGV in the current station section;
step S300, the running speed of the AGV in the next station section is adjusted according to the time difference of the AGV in the current station section, so that the total running time of the AGV along the production line is equal to the sum of the standard running time of the AGV in each station section; the time difference of the AGV in the current station section is the difference between the actual running time of the AGV in the current station section and the standard running time of the station section.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, a production line is divided into 10 equal-divided station segments equally, the standard running duration of the AGV in each station segment is 6 seconds, the timing is started from the time when the AGV runs in the first station segment, the time comparison is performed immediately after the AGV runs in the first station segment, one is the standard running duration (using a system clock, the system clock is absolute time), the one is the actual running duration of the AGV in the current station segment, and then the running speed of the AGV in the next station segment is adjusted according to the time difference of the AGV in the current station segment. The AGV constant speed driving system has the advantages that the AGV constant speed driving for a long time is decomposed into the constant speed driving adjustment for a short time, errors can be reduced to the greatest extent, and meanwhile, the AGV constant speed driving system is intelligent and flexible because the AGV constant speed driving system is self-comparison adjustment.
As a further improvement of the above embodiment, the start and end of each station segment in the production line are provided with landmark cards, and the step S200 includes:
scanning in real time during the running process of the AGV along the production line to read the landmark card;
when the AGV reads the landmark card, determining a station section where the AGV is currently located;
recording the starting time and the ending time of the station section where the AGV is currently located; the starting time is the time when the AGV reads the landmark card at the starting position of the current station section, and the ending time is the time when the AGV reads the landmark card at the ending position of the current station section;
and calculating the time difference between the starting time and the ending time to obtain the actual running duration of the AGV in the current station section.
As a further improvement of the above embodiment, the step S300 includes:
if the actual running time of the AGV in the station section is longer than the standard running time of the station section, controlling the AGV to increase the running speed of the next station section; otherwise, controlling the AGV to reduce the running speed of the next station section; to make up for the time difference of the AGV in the current station segment.
As a further improvement of the above embodiment, the method further comprises:
acquiring the highest running speed and the lowest running speed of the AGV;
and in the process that the AGV runs along the production line, the running speed of the AGV is detected in real time so as to control the running speed of the AGV not to exceed the highest running speed and not to be lower than the lowest running speed.
It should be noted that, in practical application, the situation that the deviation from the standard running duration is large may occur due to the distance problem of the laid landmark, or the road surface problem, or the road section of the turn, so that the AGV may have a steep increase or decrease in speed in the next station section, the steep increase in speed may cause the feeding person to react less quickly, the steep decrease in speed may cause the AGV to stop directly, and these problems may be avoided by defining an adjusted maximum running speed and minimum running speed.
As a further improvement of the above embodiment, the method further comprises:
determining whether the time difference of the AGV in the current station section is larger than a set threshold value, if so, calculating the difference value between the time difference and the set threshold value;
and reducing the standard running time of the AGV in the station section according to the difference value.
It should be noted that, in order to avoid the situation that the time deviation of the AGV in a certain station section is too large, a flexible time configuration change may be further performed, for example, if it is found that the AGV travels for approximately 8 seconds in a small section of 1-2 in the actual running process, it is difficult to readjust the travel time length through a subsequent station section, and the standard travel time length of the station section may be configured to be 4 seconds, so that the actual travel time length of the station section of the AGV may be approximately 6 seconds, thereby reducing the time difference of the AGV in the current station section.
