Describe referring to Fig. 5 and other accompanying drawing working process the automation control system of the optimal path of the utility model hoisting crane.
Entire work process was divided into for four steps, and is as follows:
The first step, the harbour operating portion is sent by the VMT terminating machine 71 of PLC 76 on hoisting crane (RTG) 1 by wireless network and does the case order, specifying information comprises freight container 3 sides distribution (profile) record under the present hoisting crane 1 in the data bank, and the three-dimensional position of the FROM of freight container 3 and TO.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 51.
In second step, PLC 76 controllers are collected each external equipment and sensor, the automation control that judges whether to satisfy condition and carry out optimal path.Each sub-condition is as follows, has only to satisfy this a little condition simultaneously and just can enter third step.
1, check cart deviation-rectifying system 73, judge whether the cart lengthwise position of hoisting crane meets the requirements.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 54.If exceeding, lengthwise position reports " GANTRY LANDSCAPE POSITION NOT IN RANGE " fault to the driver by touching display screen 79.And total system switched to manual state.
2, check GPS position fixing system 72, judge whether the cart horizontal position of hoisting crane 1 meets the requirements.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 53.If position coordinate of reading from the GPS position fixing system and the position coordinate of reading from VMT terminating machine 71 are inconsistent, then by touching display screen 79 to driver's report " GANTRY PORTRAIT POSITION MISMATCH " fault.And total system switched to manual state.
3, check laser measurement system 77, according to the data that laser sensor 30-37 collects the distributions of freight container 3 sides under the present hoisting crane 1 (profile) are calculated.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 56.Freight container 3 sides that the freight container side distributes (profile) and VMT terminating machine 71 the sends distributions (profile) that laser sensor 30-37 reads are carried out strictness relatively, have only the Data Matching of these two sides distributions (profile) could carry out optimal path, otherwise should report the fault of " CRANE PROFILE MISMATCH " to the driver, and total system is switched to manual state.
In the 3rd step, PLC 76 controllers are controlled the lifting mechanism of hoisting cranes 1 and the position of trolley body by calculating direct drive vector frequency converter 75.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 61 and 62.Shake effect and accurate positioning and safety in order to reach well anti-, in this control process, utilize following 3 subsystems to realize:
1, absolute value encoder 80.General absolute value encoder 80 can be accurate to millimeter, therefore can guarantee the accuracy of position control by absolute value encoder 80.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 57.
2, electronic anti-swinging system 78.According to physics, the pendulum angle of suspender 2 and following variable have relation: the intrinsic characteristic (exogenous variable) of the height of suspender 2 (length of steel wire rope), suspender 2 and the weight of 2 times freight containers 3 of suspender, the size of dolly acceleration/accel, whole mechanical mechanism.For electronic anti-swinging, must grasp and reaching less pendulum angle constraint (expectation) time length of steel wire rope. the relation of the weight of suspender 2 and 2 times freight containers 3 of suspender and the size of dolly acceleration/accel.According to the experience of practice, this relation is not the functional relation of determining, but correlationship.Therefore we set up monobasic correlationship math modeling according to repeatedly testing the DS Data Set that obtains, and use the parameter that method of least square calculates this model.PLC 76 controllers obtain the acceleration/accel that dolly was controlled and revised to relevant acceleration/accel with the height that hoists with this relational model of weight substitution in control, in the hope of reach and when test corresponding obtain reasonable prevent shaking effect.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 60.
3, suspender collision avoidance system 74.In the suspender operational process, must in the scanning period of each PLC 76 controller, check suspender collision avoidance system 74 for guaranteeing safety.There is any problem must stop the optimal path automation as finding at once, switches to manual state, and report " SPREADER ANTI-COLLISION ACTIONED, ORDER ABORTED " fault to the driver by touching display screen.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 55.
In the 4th step, report that to the driver finishing this smoothly does the case order, and the weight of freight container 3 is issued operating portion, for upgrading Relational database by VMT terminating machine 71.Data flow is shown in arrow among Fig. 5 52.
