Definitions
- the object on which the invention is based is therefore to specify a further arrangement and a further method by means of which it is possible to monitor the working area of a mobile working device.
- a particular advantage of the method according to the invention is that an exact position determination of the device is possible with the help of a global positioning system and that a defined work area for an implement can be monitored in a simple manner by specifying a work area.
- a signal can preferably be triggered which, for example, causes the control of the device to slow down or stop the movements.
- An alarm can preferably also be triggered for a human operator of this device, which then signals to the user that this may can collide with an obstacle that is in the vicinity of the work area.
- the movements of attachments attached to the implement are also monitored particularly advantageously, in order to be able to determine whether a boom or another movable part which is attached to the implement threatens to leave the work area.
- it can preferably be provided that the movements of the boom are automatically limited to the specified work area.
- the data required for evaluating the position and location of the device and its attachments are preferably output and evaluated by angle sensors or similar sensors provided on the device for control measures. Collisions with obstacles can preferably be avoided by the method according to the invention by defining the work area in such a way that it does not contain obstacles or that it definitely circumscribes them.
- a reference position is preferably assumed at the start of a work process, and changes in movement of the work tool and any attachments that may be present are registered, for example, by outputting signals from rotary angle sensors, so that an exact statement can be made at any point in which position the implement and any attachments intended for it are located. It can thus be ensured in a simple manner that no part of the device leaves the working area.
- This monitoring is particularly simple if the kinematics of the device or existing add-on parts are taken into account, since the kinematics only allow certain movement processes and therefore not all theoretically conceivable movements have to be examined, but only those which are due to the kinematics of the device and its add-on parts possible are.
- volume elements In order to facilitate automatic evaluation during the monitoring process, individual movable parts of the Work equipment and its attachments enclosed by volume elements, since a good approximation to the real state is achieved with as little computation effort as possible, and in addition the advantage is achieved that a safety distance to the boundary of the working area can be achieved in that the volume elements which circumscribe to be enlarged.
- the work area or the permitted and permissible work volume in the form of a teach-in becomes particularly advantageous.
- the data on the permissible work area can also be obtained particularly advantageously in the form of CAD design data, since the exact geometry of the work area or the surroundings of the building often has to be recorded anyway when building buildings or tunnels and an exact description is therefore available, which means that a teach-in procedure can be saved.
- An arrangement for carrying out the method according to the invention particularly advantageously provides means for determining the global position and simple means for detecting movements of the implement and, in some cases, existing attachments.
- these motion sensors are in the form of rotary angle sensors and odometers provided on a propulsion axis of the device.
- This data is preferably related to one another by an evaluation unit and it is determined whether a predefined work area is maintained by the implement or by attachments present thereon. This condition can be particularly advantageous in the event of violations if the working area is observed, an alarm is triggered, or the control unit can influence the movements of the device, which means that the device can be stopped, or that the movements are adapted so that the outermost point of the device matches the contour of the device Work volume follows.
- FIG. 1 shows an example of an implement in the form of an excavator.
- FIG. 2 shows an example of an implement in a work space.
- FIG. 1 shows an implement AG in the form of an excavator. If excavators are mentioned in the following, this should not mean that the invention is only restricted to excavators. Other land-moving devices are also conceivable in connection with the invention, or the use of agricultural devices can thus be monitored. In connection with agricultural machines, it is conceivable, for example, that during the processing of a field, it is monitored whether its boundaries are strictly observed.
- the excavator AG shown in FIG. 1 has, for example, antennas AI and A2 with which data can be received from a global positioning system.
- a control computer of the unit for example, the position of the excavator structure is determined to within a few centimeters.
- axes 10 to 50 can be controlled separately by a control of the excavator. Suitable position sensors are provided on these axes, which allow the control to determine the exact position of the respective attachment parts AT.
- excavator AG is to be used to excavate soil on a floor BO.
- the axes 10 to 50 described allow any degree of freedom.
- Variable parameters of the device should preferably be tes are monitored for all degrees of freedom of the excavator, so that it is known at all times in what position the excavator is and which contour the attachment AT provided, for example, assumes. It can be said about attachments AT that they cannot generally be moved as desired, since they have kinematics given by their geometry. This kinematics is indicated here, for example, by the degrees of freedom on axes 10 to 30. If a control computer or other means is to be used to check whether the implement AG or an add-on part is leaving a predefined work area, the control can use the kinematics and angle sensors or other measuring means, which are located on the corresponding axes are intended to be determined very easily which final geometry is taken up by the attachment.
- a position of a most distant point, the far point can be determined, which is preferably to be monitored.
- two such distant points are entered FP1 and FP2.
- possibilities are preferably exhausted with which the position of a mobile vehicle, such as, for example, the working device AG, can be determined as precisely as possible.
- FIG. 2 shows the working device AG from FIG. 1 in connection with a permissible working area AZU, essential parts of the working device being circumscribed by volume elements V10 to WO.
- volume elements V10 to WO volume elements
- the permitted working area AZU is shown here simplified as a cuboid or as a flat.
- any three-dimensional structures are also conceivable and predeterminable.
- a permissible work area can be entered in the form of a teach-in process, in which an operator with the implement AG and attached parts travels through the entire work area, which is to be permitted afterwards, in one learning step and thereby Existing attachments moved so that they do not violate the desired limit of the work area.
- the movements specified in this way can be stored by a controller of the device, and in later operation when working with the device, these control positions can be compared with the currently entered control positions of the operator.
- the current position of the working device AG also plays a role in learning, which is obtained via the global positioning system and is preferably stored in connection with each movement that is currently being carried out.
- the control can issue an alarm signal or cause the device with its extension AT to remain in the permissible working area AZU at any time by the control automatically modifying control commands from the operator.
- the permissible working area AZU can, for example, also be specified mvers by only explicitly marking obstacles which are to be avoided.
- the permissible working area AZU can preferably also be entered in the form that Data from an existing CAD model of the work area are available. Here, for example, construction data are conceivable, which an architect has already entered during the measurement of the terrain and in the construction of a building or an excavation, which then only the
- Control of the device must be communicated or supplied electronically.
- the method according to the invention is preferably carried out cyclically.
- a first step for example, the position and location of the device is determined using GPS receivers.
- the orientation of the implement can preferably also be determined by comparing their positions.
- the positional inaccuracy of 2 cm results in angular errors of approximately 0.4 ° in the case of large excavators, this inaccuracy can, however, be taken into account when warning or deregulating possible collisions.
- the maximum inaccuracy can expand up to 12 cm at the tip of the bucket.
- joint angles of the implement are preferably recorded, this being possible in various ways, for example using potentiometers or resolvers. It is, however, only important for the method according to the invention that the changes in movement of the implement are measured exactly and are known.
- knowledge of the own position and the orientation of the implement, as well as the articulation angle and the dimensions of the individual elements, such as the volume elements V10 to V50 and on the basis of the kinematics of the implement, for example, can then be used its attachments the exact spatial position of the implement can be determined.
- a collision test of each of these excavator room elements can then preferably be carried out with the specified work area.
- a remote point FP1 can also be determined, which can be derived, for example, in a suitable manner from the kinematics of the add-on part and the implement AG. For example, this is a point which is furthest away from the working device AG. Such points are described in FIG. 1 with FP1 and FP2. If such points have been determined, it is ensured that no other points of the device can be located closer to the limit of the work area than this.
- warning tone can be emitted, which, for example, first brakes the movement of the implement and ultimately prevents it.
- the individual steps of the method according to the invention can be carried out cyclically in a recurring order.
