Description

Terrain sensing device and regulation and control method for self-adaptive adjustment of cutter height
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of agricultural machinery and automatic control, and particularly relates to a terrain sensing device and a regulation and control method for self-adaptive adjustment of cutter height.
Background
The terrain detection technology is a technology for sensing and processing the terrain change by using one or more sensors, and the principle of the terrain detection technology is that the fluctuation change information of the corresponding terrain is acquired by using a contact type or non-contact type sensor, and the terrain change condition is obtained after processing. According to different environmental characteristics of the use scene, the actual requirements and constraint conditions are analyzed, and a proper terrain detection method is adopted to realize accurate detection of the terrain variation trend and is used for subsequent researches such as automatic control, terrain mapping and the like. Terrain detection technology is widely used in a plurality of fields such as robots, engineering machinery, agricultural machinery and automatic operation.
At present, the terrain detection technology is researched and tried to be used on robots, engineering machinery and agricultural machinery, such as detecting terrain changes in real time when the robots walk, and providing information of the terrain changes for path planning of the automatic walking robots; when the method is used for operating in a crop planting field with complex environment, the quality and efficiency of mechanized harvesting of crops are optimized by implementing terrain detection. However, due to differences in application environments, the same terrain detection method is often poorly adaptable in different environments. In the sugarcane harvesting link, a large number of barriers such as sugarcane leaves, straws, weeds and the like exist below the sugarcane harvester, so that a common terrain detection mode cannot be realized, for example, a non-contact sensor such as a camera, ultrasonic waves, radar and the like cannot penetrate through the weeds to obtain real terrains, the height of a cutting knife can be adjusted only by means of manual experience, the sugarcane harvesting quality cannot meet the requirement of agricultural planting, the intention of farmers for mechanical harvesting is reduced, and the sugarcane harvesting mechanization degree of China is lower at present. Therefore, a terrain detection method adapting to the sugarcane harvesting environment is urgently needed, and meanwhile, the real-time terrain detection of the sugarcane harvesting scene is realized by matching with a cutter height self-adaptive adjustment method, so that the cutter height self-adaptive control of the sugarcane harvester is realized.
Related researches combine terrain detection technology with automatic control method to perform automatic control based on terrain, and focus on the identification of the trend of terrain variation at present, and non-contact sensors such as vision sensors and radar sensors are adopted to process and detect the terrain data. Because the sugarcane harvesting scene has higher requirements on the anti-interference capability of the detection method, the actual situation needs to be considered, and a proper terrain detection method and a control method are selected to realize the self-adaptive adjustment of the height of the cutting knife of the sugarcane harvester.
Taking a common sugarcane harvesting scene as an example, when the sugarcane harvester is used for harvesting, a driver needs to observe the rough terrain conditions such as gradient and overall change of different harvesting areas, meanwhile, the change of the height of the lower ridge on the way of different harvesting paths needs to be considered, and the harvesting requirement that the sugarcane cutting height is within 5cm below the ground is difficult to ensure. The visual sensor and the radar can not overcome the interference caused by a large amount of sugarcane leaves and sugarcane stalks near the cutter; the contact sensor can reduce the influence of complex environment on the terrain detection process through the mode of contacting with the ground, but because the cutter device height change and the vehicle body posture change exist in the operation process of the sugarcane harvester, the existing contact sensor is difficult to be directly used for cutter regulation and control of the sugarcane harvester.

Comparative example 1:
this comparative example presents a terrain sensing method based on an angle sensor and a method for adaptive regulation and control of the height of the tool, the other steps of which are identical to those of example 1, with the difference that only the terrain adopted by the test is different.
The test terrain model 1 adopted in example 1 is a slope type terrain, and the test is carried out by adopting different terrain models 2, 3 and 4 in the comparative example. Fig. 10, 11 and 12 show the results of the comparative example 1.
Comparative example 2:
the comparative example shows a terrain sensing method based on an angle sensor and a cutter height self-adaptive regulation and control method, and other steps of the method are the same as those of the embodiment 1, and the difference is only that the travelling speed of a model in a test is different so as to verify the difference of the control system under different speeds.
The test performed in example 1 simulates the normal operating travel rate of a cane harvester of 1.8km/h, and the comparative example uses slower (1 km/h) and faster (2 km/h) travel rates. Fig. 13 and 14 show the results of the test corresponding to comparative example 2.
Example 2:
the embodiment provides a terrain sensing method based on an angle sensor and a cutter height self-adaptive control method, other steps of the method are the same as those of the embodiment 1, the difference is that the sugarcane harvester which is put into use is modified, a protective shell 22 and a protective wire sleeve 23 are additionally arranged, the sensor is prevented from being damaged in the experimental process, the modification result is as shown in fig. 15, the field test of the sugarcane harvester is carried out in a farmland, and meanwhile, the difference exists in the step 2:
step 2, system parameter adjustment:
in step S21, the cab inclination sensor 3 installed in the cab of the vehicle body is used for feeding back the angle of the vehicle body along with the terrain, and the output of the cab inclination sensor 3 is 0 when the vehicle body is calibrated to be horizontal, the rise of the vehicle body is positive, and the fall of the vehicle body is negative when the vehicle body is down and down. The inclination sensor 4 of the installed tool rest device is calibrated to be zero when the hydraulic cylinder 12 is completely contracted, and the angle is increased to be positive when the hydraulic cylinder 12 extends;
step S22, selecting a proper current value of the PWM electromagnetic proportional reversing valve 10, and adjusting the action speed of the hydraulic cylinder 12 to meet the requirement;
because the structure of the test prototype is more complete than the bench, the weight of the cutter part is increased, the resistance of the telescopic oil cylinder is different, the characteristics of the hydraulic system of the test prototype and the characteristics of the hydraulic system of the indoor test prototype are different, the field test shows that when PWMcon is larger than 11000 (1.35A), the hydraulic cylinder 12 can start to act slowly, the action speed of the hydraulic cylinder 12 is increased along with the increase of the value, and the hydraulic cylinder 12 can act quickly when PWMcon is 13000 (1.59A), so that the requirement of the lifting speed of the cutter is met, therefore, the output range of PWM duty ratio parameters is determined as [11000, 13000] in the test process, and the corresponding output current is [1.35,1.59] A.
FIGS. 16-19 show the results of the corresponding tests of example 2.
Effect test comparison:
the final value errors of the cutting knife ground-leaving heights H2 of different model theories are controlled within 10mm, the steady-state errors are small, and the control precision is high; the mean error is controlled within 20mm, which indicates that the overall dynamic accuracy of the control system is higher.
The comparison of control performance under different speeds is carried out in comparative example 2, and the result shows that for the terrain change under different speeds, namely under different complexity degrees, the final value error of the theoretical cutting knife ground-leaving height H2 is controlled within 10mm, the average value error is controlled within 20mm, namely the cutting knife ground-leaving height is kept unchanged, and the control system can maintain better control precision. However, under the condition that the terrain change is complex and frequent, namely the vehicle speed is high, the control error is large, namely the rapidly-changed terrain has a certain influence on the terrain following performance of the self-adaptive control system, and the overall control performance is still good.
Through the field test of the embodiment 2, the test results of various different terrains on the sugarcane field shown in fig. 16-19 are obtained, the final value error of the theoretical cutting knife ground-leaving height H2 in the test process is controlled within 20mm, the mean value error is controlled within 25mm, and the self-adaption following performance of the whole body along with the change of terrains is good. The downhill slope test does not show obvious difference from the uphill slope test, and the slow test error in different vehicle speed tests is smaller than that in the fast test, so that the local terrain gradient inclination direction has no great influence on the performance of the control system. Because of the multiple continuous terrain changes of the actual terrain, the overall control performance test result of the control system has larger error compared with the step model test in the indoor test.
Experiments show that the terrain detection and cutter height self-adaptive regulation and control method based on the contact type terrain sensing device can effectively realize cutter height self-adaptive regulation and control in the working process of the sugarcane harvester, and provides an effective method for terrain sensing of similar scenes and self-adaptive control of the working device.
Although the method is verified in a sugarcane harvester, the method is not limited to the case, and the method is used for sensing the topography of other construction machines or agricultural machines and adaptively regulating and controlling the working device, and is also within the protection scope of the invention.
The modification, calculation model and fuzzy control method described in example 1 and example 2 are the same; the method of the embodiment can carry out terrain detection and cutter height self-adaptive adjustment under different complex scenes; the method solves the problems of low harvesting efficiency and low quality caused by manual driving operation of the conventional sugarcane harvester, and truly realizes automatic and intelligent crop harvesting.
