Description
Technical Field
The disclosure relates to the field of engineering machinery, in particular to a driving stabilizing system and a backhoe loader.
Background
The excavating loader is a multifunctional engineering machine integrating excavating and loading. The method is widely applied to the construction of various basic engineering projects, and can be used for digging, shoveling, carrying, crushing, field leveling and other operations. Since they are required to frequently perform traveling work on various complicated and even severe off-highway roads, they are required to have a high traveling speed to improve work efficiency. However, the backhoe loader is affected by the structure of the loading end working device, and when the backhoe loader is excited by an uneven road surface, the uneven road surface causes vibration and jolt of the whole vehicle, which is mainly expressed as a front-rear pitching vibration phenomenon. The shifting of the center of gravity of the entire vehicle further amplifies this vibration due to the loading end working device load of the front cantilever-like structure, resulting in a more severe pitching vibration phenomenon. On the one hand, this leads to poor operating comfort and, on the other hand, due to pitching vibrations, it is easy to cause the material in the hopper to spill, thus reducing the operating efficiency. Therefore, the development of high speed, high efficiency and safety of the backhoe loader has been severely restricted by the vibration problem.
Aiming at the vibration problem of the hydraulic system of the working device, a passive energy storage type driving stabilization system developed by an oil-gas suspension technology is utilized to solve the problem in some related technologies at home and abroad. The working principle is that the energy accumulator is utilized to effectively absorb impact vibration entering a hydraulic circuit of a working device such as a bucket.

In some related art, passive energy storage type running stabilization systems developed by using oil-gas suspension technology are utilized to solve the vibration problem. Research shows that when the passive energy storage type driving stabilization system is started, after the system is started, because the pressure of the energy accumulator is not always balanced with the pressure of a rodless cavity of a movable arm hydraulic cylinder of the working device, a piston rod of the movable arm hydraulic cylinder is easy to move back and forth, so that the working device cannot be always kept at a set position and changes, and material in a bucket is scattered or other safety hazards are caused.
The set position refers to a specific position (for example, the opening end of the bucket is kept horizontal, and the bucket connecting hinge point is about 300mm away from the ground) of the working device when a construction machine such as an excavator loader capable of carrying materials to transfer or operate is driven or carries materials to transfer, so that the gravity center of the whole vehicle is lower, and the steering stability and the driving smoothness of the vehicle are improved.
In addition, the damping required by vibration reduction is different due to different road surface unevenness and material weight in the bucket, and the passive energy storage type driving stabilizing system in the related technology is difficult to adjust the system damping in real time according to the road surface unevenness and the material weight of the bucket.
In view of this, the present disclosure provides a driving stabilization system and a loader-digger, which can improve the safety during driving.
As shown in fig. 1, a hydraulic schematic of some embodiments of a ride control system according to the present disclosure. FIG. 2 is a block schematic diagram of some embodiments of a ride stability system according to the present disclosure. Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in some embodiments, a ride stability system includes: a hydraulic actuator 1, a first hydraulic oil source B, an energy storage element a and a controller E. The hydraulic actuator 1 may be a working unit of a working vehicle to which the running stability system is applied. In some embodiments, the hydraulic actuator 1 is capable of carrying material while the work machine vehicle is traveling. For example, in an excavating and loading machine employing an embodiment of the disclosed travel stabilization system, the hydraulic actuator 1 may be a boom cylinder.
A first hydraulic oil source B is operatively connected to the hydraulic actuator 1 and is configured to provide pressure oil to the hydraulic actuator 1. The first hydraulic oil source B can supply hydraulic oil to the hydraulic actuator 1 through the first oil supply passage r1 as needed, and stop supplying hydraulic oil to the hydraulic actuator 1 as needed.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the first hydraulic oil source B includes a hydraulic pressure source, such as the oil pump 7 of fig. 1. In some embodiments, the first hydraulic oil source B may further include an electromagnetic directional valve 3 provided on the first oil supply passage r1 to achieve operability of oil supply. The first hydraulic oil source B may further include a relief valve 4 provided between the first oil supply passage r1 and the oil return passage to provide overload protection of the system or to achieve a function of pressure constancy of the hydraulic source or the like.
In fig. 1, an oil pump 7 may be driven by the motor 5 or the engine to pump hydraulic oil from a tank 6. An oil inlet and an oil return port of the electromagnetic directional valve 3 are respectively connected with an outlet of an oil pump 7 and an oil tank 6, two working oil ports of the electromagnetic directional valve 3 are respectively connected with rodless cavities of the two hydraulic actuators 1, and the starting, the stopping and the operation in different running directions of the hydraulic actuators 1 are realized through the switching of the electromagnetic directional valve 3. In other embodiments, the first hydraulic oil source B may also employ an oil supply mechanism for driving its own working unit in an existing working machine.
The accumulator element a operatively connects the first oil supply passage r1 between the first hydraulic oil source B and the hydraulic actuator 1. The energy accumulating element a may comprise one or more accumulators, such as gas, spring or piston accumulators or the like. The energy storage element A can effectively absorb impact and vibration in a related hydraulic circuit of the hydraulic actuator 1, so that the problems of oil penetration of hydraulic pipeline joints, severe vibration of a cab and a vehicle body structure, easiness in spilling of bearing materials and the like of some working vehicles applying the running stability system are effectively solved, and the reliability, the operation comfort, the running stability and the working efficiency of the working vehicles are improved.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the controller E may compare the oil pressures of the hydraulic actuator 1 and the accumulator element a after the driving stability system is turned on, and may balance the oil pressures of the accumulator element a and the hydraulic actuator 1 before the accumulator element a is connected to the first oil supply passage r 1. In the embodiment, the pressure of the energy storage element is adjusted to be consistent with the pressure of the hydraulic actuator, so that the working device can be kept at the set position before the driving stability system is started without changing or changing obviously after the driving stability system is started, and the operation stability and the driving smoothness of the working vehicle are improved.
The controller E may be an electronic controller that operates in a logical manner to perform operations, execute control algorithms, store and retrieve data, and other desired operations. Controller E may include or have access to memory, a secondary storage device, a processor, and any other components for running an application. The memory and secondary storage devices may be in the form of Read Only Memory (ROM), Random Access Memory (RAM), or an integrated circuit accessible by the controller. Various other circuits (e.g., power supply circuitry, signal conditioning circuitry, driver circuitry, and other types of circuitry) may be associated with controller E.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises: a second hydraulic oil source C and an oil drainage element D. A second hydraulic oil source C is operatively connected to the accumulator element a, and is capable of supplying pressure oil to the accumulator element a through a second oil supply passage r2 to raise the oil pressure of the accumulator element a. For example, when the pressure of the energy storage element a is lower than the pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1, the oil pressure of the energy storage element a is increased and tends to coincide with the pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 by the second hydraulic oil source C and the supply of pressure oil to the energy storage element a.
In fig. 1, the second hydraulic oil source C includes: an oil pump 7 and a first control valve 8. The oil pump 7 communicates with the accumulator element a through the second oil supply passage r 2. The first control valve 8 is connected in series to the second oil supply passage r2 and is in signal connection with the controller E, and is configured to open or close the second oil supply passage r2 according to a control command of the controller E. In some embodiments, the first hydraulic fluid source B and the second hydraulic fluid source C use the same oil pump to provide hydraulic fluid. In other embodiments, the first hydraulic fluid source B and the second hydraulic fluid source C use different oil pumps to provide hydraulic fluid.
The oil drainage element D is operably connected with the energy storage element A and is configured to unload the energy storage element A through an oil drainage oil path r3 so as to reduce the oil pressure of the energy storage element A. For example, when the pressure of the energy storage element a is higher than the pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1, the energy storage element a can be unloaded by the drain element D, so that the oil pressure of the energy storage element a is reduced and tends to coincide with the pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1.
In fig. 1, the drain member D includes the oil tank 6 and the second control valve 14. The oil tank 6 is communicated with the energy storage element a through the oil drain passage r 3. The second control valve 14 is connected in series to the oil drain path r3 and is in signal connection with the controller E, and is configured to make the oil drain path r3 be communicated or closed according to a control command of the controller E.
In order to efficiently acquire the pressure of the energy storage element a and the hydraulic actuator 1, with reference to fig. 1 and 2, in some embodiments the ride stabilisation system further comprises a first pressure sensor 2 and a second pressure sensor 16. The first pressure sensor 2 can be arranged on the energy storage element a or can be connected to an outlet of the energy storage element a. The first pressure sensor 2 is configured to detect the oil pressure of the accumulator element a. The second pressure sensor 16 may be provided on the hydraulic actuator 1 or connected to an oil port of the hydraulic actuator 1. The second pressure sensor 16 is configured to detect the oil pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further includes a third control valve 9. The third control valve 9 is located in an oil passage between the first oil supply passage r1 and the accumulator element a, and is in signal connection with the controller E. The third control valve 9 can connect or disconnect the first oil supply passage r1 to or from the accumulator element a in accordance with a control command from the controller E. In fig. 1, the third control valve 9 may be located on an oil passage r4 that communicates the first oil supply passage r1 and the second oil supply passage r 2. Before the accumulator element a is connected to the first oil supply passage r1, the third control valve 9 disconnects the accumulator element a from the first oil supply passage r 1. After the pressure of the accumulator element a is made to coincide with the pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 by the second hydraulic oil source C or the drain element D, the third control valve 9 is opened to make the accumulator element a communicate with the oil passage of the first oil supply passage r1, thereby providing a protective effect against shock and vibration to the hydraulic actuator 1 through the accumulator element a.
The unevenness of the travel surface of the work vehicle may vary with the course of travel, for example, the working environment of a backhoe loader is generally a non-paved off-road surface. To reduce the impact of variations in road surface roughness on driver comfort and ride comfort, referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises: an electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 and a check valve 12. The electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 is in signal connection with the controller E and is configured to change the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 according to the control instruction of the controller E. The check valve 12 is connected in parallel with the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11, and then is arranged in series on the second oil supply path r2, and is configured to realize one-way conduction in the oil filling direction of the energy storage element a.
In the present embodiment, the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 and the check valve 12 can constitute a check throttle valve for controlling the flow of pressure oil between the energy storage element a and the first oil supply passage r1, and adjusting the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 by controlling the current can change the system damping.
For the adjustment of the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11, referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises: the road surface unevenness detecting element G, the working end load detecting element F and the database H. The road surface irregularity detecting element G may include an acceleration sensor or an inclination sensor provided on the vehicle body, and is in signal connection with the controller E. The road surface irregularity detecting element G may be configured to detect a signal indicative of the irregularity of the currently running road surface. Road surface irregularity, which refers to the degree of deviation of the surface of the road surface from a reference plane, can be characterized by wavelength and amplitude.
The work end load sensing element F may use a load cell to weigh the weight of material carried by the work end as the current load of the hydraulic actuator. A work end load sensing element F is in signal connection with the controller E and is configured to sense the current load of the hydraulic actuator 1. A database H is located within or in signal connection with the controller E and is configured to store map data of road surface irregularity levels and/or hydraulic actuator loads with the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11.
The controller E can determine the road surface unevenness grade according to the signal for representing the unevenness of the current running road surface, inquire the database H according to the road surface unevenness grade and/or the current load of the hydraulic actuator 1, and then send a control command to the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 according to the inquired throttle hole diameter of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 so as to adjust the throttle hole diameter of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11.
The mapping data stored in the database can be obtained by calculation according to the simulation model in advance. Accordingly, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises a model building unit I. The model establishing unit I is in signal connection with the database H, and is configured to perform iterative optimization through a neural network algorithm with the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 as an independent variable and the running smoothness as an objective function under the input of different hydraulic actuator loads and different levels of road surface spectrum information, so as to fit a curve set of the optimal throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 corresponding to different hydraulic actuator loads respectively under different road surface unevenness levels, and store the fitting data in the database H.
When the model is established, simulation models respectively corresponding to multiple road surface grades can be established, numerical values of multiple throttle apertures are input for different hydraulic brake loads in the simulation model of each road surface grade, and a curve set of the optimal throttle aperture corresponding to the optimal driving smoothness under different loads is found out. The curve may comprise a curve of the optimum throttle aperture at no load of the hydraulic brake.
In this way, when the energy storage element a is connected to the first oil supply passage r1, the controller can detect the current load of the hydraulic actuator 1 and the signal for representing the unevenness of the current running road surface, and determine the road surface unevenness grade according to the signal for representing the unevenness of the current running road surface. The controller can further inquire the database H according to the road surface unevenness grade and/or the current load of the hydraulic actuator 1, and adjust the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 according to the inquired throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11.
The road surface irregularity grade represents a certain irregularity range, and after the driving stabilizing system is started, the road surface irregularity detecting element G can monitor the road surface irregularity in real time. When the road surface unevenness is in the range corresponding to a certain road surface unevenness grade, the throttling aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttling valve 11 does not need to be adjusted. And when the road surface unevenness grade where the current road surface unevenness is detected to change, carrying out corresponding throttling aperture adjustment according to the road surface unevenness grade where the current road surface unevenness is located. The optimal throttling aperture stored in the database is utilized to reduce the adverse effects of vibration and impact on the working vehicle in the driving process, and the comfort and the driving smoothness of a driver are improved.
For a working vehicle, the load difference of a working end under the no-load and full-load states is large, and the requirement for vibration reduction is different. In order to achieve a good damping effect for the work vehicle in both these conditions, and with reference to fig. 1, in some embodiments the energy accumulating element a comprises: a first accumulator 18, a second accumulator 19 and a fourth control valve 17. The first accumulator 18 has a first maximum working oil pressure, the second accumulator 19 has a second maximum working oil pressure, and the second maximum working oil pressure is greater than the first maximum working oil pressure. The first energy store 18 corresponds to a low-pressure energy store, which is used primarily in the unloaded state, while the second energy store 19 corresponds to a high-pressure energy store, which is used primarily in the loaded state.
The fourth control valve 17 is connected to the second hydraulic oil source C, the drain element D, the first accumulator 18, and the second accumulator 19, respectively. The fourth control valve 17 is able to switch the oil passage of the second hydraulic oil source C to the first accumulator 18 or the second accumulator 19, and the oil passage of the first accumulator 18 or the second accumulator 19 to the drain element D. The fourth control valve 17 can switch the charging and discharging of any one of the first accumulator 18 and the second accumulator 19 and the action of damping the hydraulic actuator.
In some embodiments, the controller E is in signal connection with said fourth control valve 17. The controller E is capable of determining whether the hydraulic actuator 1 is in an unloaded condition when the ride control system is on. If the control valve is in the idling condition, the controller E sends a control command to the fourth control valve 17 to switch the first accumulator 18 to be communicated with the first oil supply passage r1 through the second oil supply passage r2, otherwise, sends a control command to the fourth control valve 17 to switch the second accumulator 19 to be communicated with the first oil supply passage r1 through the second oil supply passage r 2.
In some embodiments, the initial oil pressure of the first accumulator 18 before the driving stability system is started is equal to the oil pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 in the idle condition, so that the time spent on balancing the pressures of the first accumulator 18 and the hydraulic actuator 1 can be saved, the response speed of the system is increased, and the response sensitivity is improved. Moreover, the first accumulator 18 has relatively low stiffness and damping, which provides a better damping effect for the hydraulic actuator in the no-load condition.
In some embodiments, the initial oil pressure of the second accumulator 19 before the ride control system is turned on is equal to the oil pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 at full load. Based on the fact that the second energy accumulator 19 has large inflation pressure and large volume, the damping requirement under the working condition of load and even full load can be met. For some working vehicles, full load operation is usually adopted, and by making the initial oil pressure of the second accumulator 19 equal to the oil pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 in the full load condition, the time taken to balance the pressures of the second accumulator 19 and the hydraulic actuator 1 can be reduced, the response speed of the system can be increased, and the response sensitivity can be improved.
In the above embodiments, each control valve may be an electromagnetic switching valve, and may also be a pilot-operated switching valve, an electro-hydraulic switching valve, or the like.
Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises: a safety valve 15 located between the energy storage element a and the tank 6. The relief valve 15 is capable of unloading the accumulator element a via the relief valve 15 when the oil pressure of the accumulator element a exceeds a preset maximum oil pressure. When the road surface excitation is too large, the maximum pressure-bearing capacity of the energy storage element is possibly exceeded, and at the moment, the oil can flow into the oil tank 6 through the safety valve 15, so that the overload protection of the energy storage element and a pipeline thereof is realized. In fig. 1, an electromagnetic on-off valve 10 may be connected in series to the second oil supply passage. The electromagnetic on-off valve 10 can be used to turn on or off the communication relationship of the accumulator element a with the first oil supply passage r1 and the second oil supply passage r 2.
Considering that the working vehicle has short running time and frequent speed change under some working conditions (such as loading and unloading operations of the backhoe loader), a running stabilizing system is not needed. Thus, referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the ride stability system further comprises: and a speed sensor J. The speed sensor J is in signal connection with the controller E and is configured to test the speed of a vehicle body K where the driving stability system is located. The controller E may start the driving stability system when a duration in which the speed of the vehicle body in which the driving stability system is located is maintained to exceed a preset speed (e.g., 5KM/h, etc.) reaches a preset duration (e.g., 10 s). When the driving stabilization system is in an opened state, the controller E can close the driving stabilization system when the speed of the vehicle body does not satisfy the condition of maintaining the speed exceeding the preset speed within the preset time period, so as to save system resources.
The above-described running stabilization system can be applied to various types of work vehicles, for example: backhoe loaders, skid steer loaders, fork loaders, and the like. As shown in fig. 3, is a schematic structural view of some embodiments of a backhoe loader according to the present disclosure. In fig. 3, the backhoe loader includes a body K and an embodiment of any of the ride stability systems described above. In some embodiments, hydraulic actuator 1 may comprise a boom cylinder of an excavating loader. Wherein, the boom cylinder 1 is connected with a loading mechanism (such as a bucket) and can be used for lifting materials.
The control process of an example of a ride control system for use on a backhoe loader is described below with reference to fig. 4 in conjunction with fig. 1-3.
When the backhoe loader is performing short distance load work or high speed no-load running in step S101, the controller may determine whether the speed of the vehicle body satisfies a condition of being greater than a limit value of 5Km/h for a time period of 10 seconds or more based on a speed signal transmitted from a speed sensor provided at the wheel assembly, and if so, perform step S102, i.e., the controller activates the running stability system. If the condition is not satisfied, step S120 is performed without starting or shutting down the driving stability system.
The driver can operate the handle to electrify the left position or the right position of the three-position four-way electromagnetic directional valve 3 so as to charge the movable arm oil cylinder through the oil pump 7, thereby controlling the movable arm oil cylinder 1 to perform telescopic action and completing the shovel loading operation. In addition, the driving stabilization system can be set in a manual opening and closing mode, and the controller receives a control instruction sent by a driver through the control panel to realize the opening or closing of the driving stabilization system, so that the failure of an automatic mode is prevented, and the safety of the system is improved.
After step S102, it is determined whether the load sensor installed in the lower portion of the bucket is in an idling condition in step S103. If the idle condition is present, step S104 is executed. In step S104, the fourth control valve 17 is selectively switched on the first accumulator 18. Since the initial pressure of the first accumulator 18 is set to be the same as the pressure of the rodless chamber of the boom cylinder at the time of idling, the pressures of the two are balanced, and the position of the working device does not change after the two are connected.
Subsequently, in step S105, an unevenness signal of the road surface is collected in real time by the acceleration sensor mounted at the axle position and fed back to the controller to further determine the current road surface unevenness level. And inquiring the numerical value of the throttling aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve corresponding to the current road surface irregularity grade under the no-load state in the database according to the road surface irregularity grade.
Next, in step S106, the controller adjusts the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11 according to the query result. If the road surface level is not changed in step S107, step S117 is performed such that the electromagnetic on-off valve 10 is electrically opened and the third control valve 9 is switched from the closed state to the open state to keep the oil passage r4 open, thereby forming a hydraulic passage from the first accumulator 18 to the rodless chamber of the boom cylinder via the fourth control valve 17, the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11, the electromagnetic on-off valve 10, and the third control valve 9. If the road surface level changes, the process returns to step S105 to re-determine the value of the throttle aperture of the preferred electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve.
When it is determined in step S103 that the vehicle is not in the idling condition, i.e., in the loaded condition, step S108 is performed. In step S108, the fourth control valve 17 is selectively switched on to the second accumulator 19. Then, step S109 is executed to judge the pressure N of the second accumulator 19Energy storagePressure N of boom cylinder at working endWork inIf not, step S110 is executed to determine the pressure N of the second accumulator 19Energy storageWhether or not the pressure is greater than the pressure N of the boom cylinder at the working endWork inIf so, step S115 is executed to return the oil of the second accumulator 19 to the tank 6 through the oil relief oil passage via the fourth control valve 17, the second control valve 14, and the throttle valve 13 to achieve the unloading operation. If less than, the second oil supply oil passage is used for storing the second oilThe accumulator 19 is replenished with oil to achieve the pressurized operation. At the time of pressurization, the pressure oil pumped out by the oil pump 7 flows into the second accumulator 19 via the first control valve 8, the electromagnetic on-off valve 10, the check valve 12, and the fourth control valve 17.
After steps S115 and 116, the process returns to re-execute step S108. After one or more cycles, to the pressure N of the second accumulator 19Energy storagePressure N of boom cylinder at working endWork inStep S109 is executed after the same.
If the pressure N of the second accumulator 19Energy storagePressure N of boom cylinder at working endWork inIf the result is the same, step S111 is executed. For example, if the initial oil pressure of the second accumulator 19 before the driving stabilization system is turned on is equal to the oil pressure of the hydraulic actuator 1 in the full load condition, the step S111 may be directly performed after the determination of the step S108 in the full load condition.
In step S111, the current load of the hydraulic actuator is detected. This operation may also be performed before the step of determining whether or not it is in an unloaded state. According to the current load and the road surface unevenness grade corresponding to the road surface unevenness signal, a database is inquired through the step S112, and then the adjustment operation of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve is executed according to the inquired numerical value of the throttle aperture of the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve through the step S113.
If the road surface level is not changed in step S114, step S117 is performed such that the electromagnetic on-off valve 10 is electrically opened and the third control valve 9 is switched from the closed state to the open state to keep the oil passage r4 open, thereby forming a hydraulic passage from the second accumulator 19 to the rodless chamber of the boom cylinder via the fourth control valve 17, the electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve 11, the electromagnetic on-off valve 10, and the third control valve 9. If the road surface level changes, the process returns to step S112 to re-determine the value of the throttle aperture of the preferred electro-hydraulic proportional throttle valve.
After step S117, if the speed of the vehicle body K does not satisfy the condition of maintaining more than 5Km/h for 10S, step S119 of disconnecting the communication oil passage between the accumulator element and the first oil supply oil passage and further shutting down the running stability system through step S120 may be performed.
