Further, the lifting motor 4 is a direct current motor with a built-in primary reduction gear 15 and a built-in secondary reduction gear 16, and the reduction mechanism 5 comprises a worm 17 and a worm wheel 18; as shown in fig. 2, the hoisting motor 4 includes a rotor core 12, a rotor winding 13, a commutator 14, a primary reduction gear 15, and a secondary reduction gear 16; the worm shaft of the speed reducing mechanism 5 is arranged on a secondary speed reducing gear 16 of the speed reducing gear, and the worm shaft is connected with the lifting arm 11 of the suspension mechanism; the upper pull rod 9 of the suspension mechanism is vertically connected with the lower pull rod 8, the lifting arm 11 is connected with the lifting rod 10, and the lifting rod 10 is connected and arranged on the lower pull rod 8.
The worm 17 and the worm wheel 18 in the speed reducing mechanism 5 have a large transmission ratio, so that the rotating speed of the lifting motor 4 can be reduced, and the suspension position can be fixed through the self-locking characteristic of the worm and the worm wheel.
The suspension control system of the invention designs three tilling depth adjusting modes of position adjustment, force adjustment and force position comprehensive adjustment; the system working modes comprise a manual regulation mode and an automatic regulation mode; in the manual mode, a user selects a tilling depth adjusting mode through a knob on a control panel; in the automatic mode, the system firstly judges whether the current working condition meets the resistance range requirement of the engine working according to the signal fed back by the sensor, if not, the corresponding single parameter adjustment is selected, and if so, the force position comprehensive adjustment mode is selected.
The control signals of the suspension system of the electric tractor comprise a tilling depth signal and a resistance signal, and the tilling depth signal is obtained by measuring the rotation angle of the lifting arm 11 by the angle sensor 6; the resistance applied to the farm implement in the farming process is mainly the soil resistance applied to the farm implement, and when the farming depth and the soil specific resistance are changed, the resistance applied to the farm implement is also changed, so that the output power of the engine is also changed to meet the current farming requirement; when the resistance is large, in order to maintain the current tilling depth, the output power of the engine is increased, namely the output current of the battery is increased; and vice versa. Considering that the system has low requirement on the precision of resistance detection, the resistance signal is fed back by the output current signal.
The "position" in the position adjustment is the position, and the "force" in the force adjustment is the resistance.
The selection of the tilling depth adjusting mode is mainly controlled according to a tilling resistance signal, when the tilling resistance is smaller than a minimum set value, the influence of the resistance on the load of an engine is small, and at the moment, the tilling depth is controlled by adopting position adjustment alone, so that the farm tool is kept working at a target tilling depth to obtain better tilling depth consistency; when the farming resistance is larger than the highest set value, the resistance has larger influence on the load of the engine, in order to avoid the damage to the engine caused by overlarge load fluctuation, force adjustment is adopted at the moment, the control system outputs a control signal according to the current resistance signal, the farm tool is controlled to move up and down to ensure that the resistance is not overlarge, and the tractor can normally work; when the farming resistance is between the lowest set value and the highest set value, the system adopts a force position comprehensive type adjusting method with the weight coefficient a of 0.1 to 0.9.
The weight coefficient a is the proportion of participation of a force position comprehensive adjustment neutral position adjustment mode, a =0 shows that the force position adjustment mode does not participate, and a =1 shows that the force position adjustment mode does not participate; a =0.5 indicates that the force and position adjustments are involved in the same proportion.
As shown in fig. 3, after the system is initialized, firstly selecting a working mode, if the working mode is a manual adjustment mode, selecting a corresponding tilling depth adjusting mode through a control panel, if the working mode is an automatic adjustment mode, initially taking a weight coefficient of the force-level comprehensive adjusting method as 0.5, judging the current tilling condition according to a tilling depth signal by the system, adopting a simple level adjusting mode to control tilling depth, the tilling resistance being greater than a highest setting value, adopting the simple force adjusting mode, when the tilling resistance is between the lowest setting value and the highest setting value, adopting the force-level comprehensive adjusting mode, and adjusting the proportion of force adjustment and level adjustment participation according to a tilling depth error, wherein the tilling depth error e = H-H, wherein H is a target tilling depth, H is an actual tilling depth measured by a sensor, setting a tilling depth allowable error range as 4cm for meeting the tilling condition of crops, and if e >3, indicating that the tilling depth is shallow, the proportion of the level adjustment participation comprehensive adjustment should be increased, and increasing the weight coefficient to 0.1 after the system feeds back, so as to gradually increase the tilling depth to meet the requirement of crops; and if e < -1, the tilling depth is deep, the proportion of the position adjustment participating in the comprehensive adjustment is reduced, the weight coefficient is reduced by 0.1 after the system feeds back, and the weight coefficient is gradually reduced until the tilling depth meets the requirement.
Based on the control system and the control method, the electric tractor suspension system based on electric transmission has the working principle that: before tillage, a user selects a manual mode or an automatic mode through the control panel 1 according to soil conditions and actual working conditions of the tractor, and then the system starts to work after a target tillage depth is set. In the manual mode, a user selects a tilling depth adjusting mode; in the automatic mode, the tilling depth controller 2 compares the signal of the angle sensor 6 and the battery output current collected during the operation of the tractor with a set target tilling depth signal after processing, then calculates the output signal, the lifting motor driver 3 controls the operation of the lifting motor 4, and the generated power is transmitted to the lifting arm 11 through the speed reducing mechanism 5, so that the lifting rod 10, the lower pull rod 8 and the upper pull rod 9 are driven to adjust the lifting of the agricultural implement, and the tilling depth requirement is met. The tilling depth controller 2 periodically performs an adjusting process, and maintains the tilling quality on the premise of ensuring the stability of the traction load of the tractor. When the tractor turns around or transports, needs the agricultural implement to hang at a fixed position, selects the instruction sent by the corresponding button on the control panel 1 to fix the agricultural implement to the specified position, at this moment, the lifting motor 4 stops running, and the self-locking characteristic of the worm 17 and worm wheel 18 mechanism in the speed reducing mechanism 5 can make the hanging fixed position fixed.
The electric tractor suspension system adopts a position adjustment and force adjustment tilling depth control method, if the land quality is good, when the tilling resistance is smaller than the minimum set value, the influence of the resistance on the load of an engine can be ignored, and at the moment, the tilling depth is controlled by adopting the independent position adjustment to obtain better tilling depth consistency; if the ground undulation is large or the farming resistance is larger than the highest set value, the influence of the resistance on the load of the engine is large, and in order to avoid the damage of the engine caused by the overlarge load fluctuation, the independent force adjustment is adopted for carrying out tilling depth control so as to ensure that the tractor can normally work; when the tillage resistance is between the lowest set value and the highest set value, the system adopts a force-position integrated adjusting method.
In conclusion, the tilling depth control of the suspension system of the electric tractor adopts a switching type adjusting mode, the system can select force adjustment, position adjustment or force position comprehensive adjustment according to the terrain, the weight coefficient is gradually decreased or increased in the comprehensive adjustment, the calculation of the weight coefficient is not needed in real time, the control system can be simplified to a certain extent, the possible faults of a hydraulic system are avoided by adopting electric transmission, the structure is simple and compact, the energy consumption is lower, and the adaptability to the working environment is better.
