Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Steuern eines Straßenfertigers der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 erläuterten Art.The invention relates to a method for controlling a road finisher explained in the preamble of claim 1 Art.

Ein Straßenfertiger herkömmlicher Bauart, der zum Einbau von Fahrbahndecken für Straßen oder dgl. verwendet wird, enthält eine Mehrzahl von Arbeitskomponenten, wie beispielsweise eine Einbaubohle mit Tamper, Pressleiste und Glättblech, Misch-, Verteil- und Fördereinrichtungen für das Einbaumaterial zum Herstellen der Fahrbahndecke, Heizeinrichtungen, Nivellierzylinder, Fahrantrieb und dgl., deren Betriebsparameter einstellbar sind und eingestellt werden müssen, um die Arbeitsweise des Straßenfertigers an die unterschiedlichsten äußeren Bedingungen anzupassen, um das für jede geforderte Qualität der Fahrbahn, das verwendete Material, der Streckenführung usw. optimalste Ergebnis zu erzielen. So muss beispielsweise der Tamperhub und die Tamperdrehzahl, der Vibrationsdruck und die Vibrationsfrequenz, der Pressleistendruck und die Pressleistenfrequenz, die Temperatur der Einbaubohle, der Anstellwinkel der Bohle, die Mischguttemperatur, der Mischguttransport und die Mischgutverteilung usw. eingestellt werden. Außerdem müssen besondere Gegebenheiten der Trasse, wie beispielsweise deren Steigung, das Klima, d.h. die Außentemperatur, die Luftfeuchtigkeit, die Windgeschwindigkeit und dgl. berücksichtigt werden. Dadurch ist bei Beginn des Einbauvorganges eine komplexe und aufwendige Einstellung aller Betriebsparameter in Abhängigkeit von den tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten und in Abhängigkeit von ihrem Betrieb untereinander vorzunehmen.A paver of conventional type used for pavement road or the like incorporates a plurality of working components, such as tamper, squeegee and screed screed, mixing, distributing and conveying means for the paving material for the pavement, Heater, leveling cylinder, traction drive and the like., The operating parameters are adjustable and must be adjusted to adapt the operation of the paver to a variety of external conditions to the optimal quality for every required quality of the road, the material used, the route, etc. achieve. For example, the tamper stroke and tamper speed, vibration pressure and vibration frequency, the pressure of the squeegee and the squeegee frequency, the temperature of the screed, the angle of attack of the screed, the mixture temperature, the material transport and the distribution of the mixed material etc. must be set. In addition, special conditions of the route, such as its slope, the climate, i. the outside temperature, the humidity, the wind speed and the like are taken into account. As a result, at the beginning of the installation process, a complex and complex adjustment of all operating parameters depending on the actual conditions and depending on their operation with each other to make.

Bislang wird diese Einstellung so vorgenommen, dass vor Beginn der Einbaufahrt der Fahrzeugführer oder anderes Fachpersonal zunächst eine Grundeinstellung nach Standardwerten, die aus Erfahrung resultieren und nach dem gewünschten Ergebnis vorgenommen wird. Anschließend werden während des Einbaus Feineinstellungen vorgenommen, um die Betriebsparameter den tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten anzupassen. Der Erfolg der Einstellung und ihrer Dauer hängt somit stark von der persönlichen Erfahrung des Bedienpersonals ab und ist in jedem Falle sehr arbeitszeitaufwendig.So far, this setting is made so that before the start of the installation drive, the driver or other specialist first a basic setting according to standard values, which result from experience and the desired result is made. Subsequently, fine adjustments are made during the installation in order to adapt the operating parameters to the actual conditions. The success of the recruitment and its duration thus depends heavily on the personal experience of the operator and is in any case very labor intensive.

Zwar ist es bereits bekannt, Computerprogramme zum Einstellen zu verwenden, diese sind jedoch starr, d.h. im praktischen Betrieb gewonnene Erfahrungen können nicht berücksichtigt werden.While it is already known to use computer programs for tuning, these are rigid, i. Experience gained in practical operation can not be taken into account.

Die EP-A-11 18 713 zeigt ein gattungsgemäßes Verfahren gemäß dem oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The EP-A-11 18 713 shows a generic method according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die DE-U-94 16 667 betrifft ein verfahrbares Bodenverdichtungsfahrzeug für den Erd- und/oder Straßenbau mit einer Steuerung, die die Möglichkeit bietet, bestimmte auf die Verdichtung bezogene Parameter einzeln einzustellen. Wenigstens einer der Parameter (Vibration) liegt in einer Grund- und einer Feineinstellung vor, wobei durch Drücken bestimmter Tasten die Vibration einer oder beider Walzen eingeschaltet und durch weitere Tasten die Vibrationsamplitude in Richtung auf eine hohe Amplitude und eine niedrigere Amplitude verstellt werden kann.The DE-U-94 16 667 relates to a traveling soil compaction vehicle for earthworks and / or road construction with a control which offers the possibility of individually setting certain compaction-related parameters. At least one of the parameters (vibration) is in a basic and a fine adjustment, by pressing certain keys, the vibration of one or both rollers can be turned on and adjusted by further buttons, the vibration amplitude in the direction of a high amplitude and a lower amplitude.

Es ist ein Maschinenspeicher vorgesehen, in den beispielsweise Grundeinstellungen von Verdichtungsdaten ablegbar sind, die es auch einem nicht routinierten Fahrzeugführer ermöglicht, optimale Verdichtungen zu erzielen.A machine memory is provided in which, for example, basic settings of compaction data can be stored, which also enables a non-routine vehicle driver to achieve optimal compaction.

Der Maschinenspeicher wird weiterhin dazu verwendet, die zuletzt verwendeten Verdichtungsdaten derart abzuspeichern, damit diese nach einem kurzen Unterbruch wieder zur Verfügung stehen und die Arbeit ohne Neueinstellung der Daten weitergeführt werden kann.The machine memory is also used to store the last used compression data so that they are available again after a brief interruption and the work can be continued without readjustment of the data.

Die Speicherung der Daten erfolgt unabhängig von den tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten.The storage of the data is independent of the actual circumstances.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren zum Steuern eines Straßenfertigers bereitzustellen, mit dem die Einstellungen wesentlich einfacher und schneller vorzunehmen sind.The invention has for its object to provide a method for controlling a paver, with which the settings are much easier and faster to make.

Die Aufgabe wird durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.The object is solved by the features specified in claim 1.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung werden einmal gewonnene Einstellungen, die bei bestimmten tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten zu einem optimalen Arbeitsergebnis geführt haben, für eine Grundeinstellung eines weiteren Einbauvorganges verwendet, bei dem vergleichbare äußere Gegebenheiten vorhanden sind. Im optimalen Fall ist dann keine Feineinstellung mehr notwendig, auf jeden Fall reduziert sich jedoch die für die Feineinstellung notwendige Arbeitszeit erheblich.By the embodiment of the invention once obtained settings that have led to an optimal work result in certain circumstances, for a basic setting of another installation process used in the comparable external conditions are present. In the optimal case, fine adjustment is no longer necessary, but in any case the working time required for the fine adjustment is considerably reduced.

Die für die Feineinstellung benötigte Zeit reduziert sich weiter mit der Erhöhung der Vielzahl von gespeicherten Feineinstellungen, d.h. mit der Vergrößerung der Auswahlmenge, aus der eine jeweils passende Grundeinstellung herausgesucht werden kann.The time required for the fine adjustment is further reduced with the increase of the plurality of stored fine adjustments, i. with the enlargement of the selected quantity, from which a suitable basic setting can be selected.

Die Erfindung ist nicht nur zum Betrieb eines und desselben Straßenfertigers anwendbar, wenn die Betriebsparameter der Feineinstellung in eine von einem Straßenfertiger auf einen weiteren Straßenfertiger übertragbare Form gebracht werden, so dass von den Feineinstellungen eines Straßenfertigers auch ein anderer Straßenfertiger profitieren kann.The invention is not only applicable to the operation of one and the same paver when the fine adjustment operating parameters are translated into a transferable form from one paver to another paver so that another paver can benefit from the fine adjustments of one paver.

Da viele Arbeitskomponenten eines Straßenfertigers nur dann ein optimales Gesamtergebnis liefern, wenn die Betriebsparameter mehrerer Arbeitskomponenten aufeinander abgestimmt sind, ist es besonders vorteilhaft, die bei der Feineinstellung einer Mehrzahl von Arbeitskomponenten erhaltenen Betriebsparameter als Paket zu speichem und als Paket für die Grundeinstellung in einem weiteren Einstellvorgang zu verwenden.Since many working components of a road paver only provide an optimal overall result when the operating parameters of several working components are coordinated, it is particularly advantageous to save the operating parameters obtained during the fine adjustment of a plurality of working components as a package and to use as a package for the basic setting in another setting procedure.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren wird nachfolgend anhand eines bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels beschrieben, wobei Fig. 1 eine Hardware-Struktur eines bekannten Betriebsdatenerfassungssystems auf einem Straßenfertiger zeigt, das zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens eingesetzt werden kann.The inventive method will be described below with reference to a preferred embodiment, wherein Fig. 1 shows a hardware structure of a known operating data acquisition system on a paver, which can be used to carry out the method according to the invention.

Das zum Durchführen des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens bevorzugt verwendete Messdatenerfassungssystem besteht gemäß Fig. 1 aus einem Memory-Lesemodul 1, einer Grafikeinheit 2 und einem Monitor 3, die über einen Arbeitsspeicher 4 mit einem selbst definierten BUS 5 verbunden sind. Das Betriebsdatenerfassungssystem enthält weiterhin eine Analog-Baugruppe 6, eine Digital-Baugruppe 7, einen Frequenzzähler 8 einer Pegelanpassung 9, die mit einem Ultraschall-Sensor 10 verbunden ist, über die die Betriebs- und Einbaudaten des Fertigers an den selbst definierten BUS 5 übergeben werden.The measurement data acquisition system preferably used to carry out the method according to the invention is according to FIG Fig. 1 from a memory reading module 1, a graphics unit 2 and a monitor 3, which are connected via a main memory 4 with a self-defined BUS 5. The operating data acquisition system further includes an analog module 6, a digital module 7, a frequency counter 8 of a level adjustment 9, which is connected to an ultrasonic sensor 10, via which the operating and installation data of the paver are transferred to the self-defined BUS 5 ,

Dieses zentrale Prozessorsystem nimmt über geeignete Anpassungsschaltungen beispielsweise Zugriff auf die in Tabelle 1 dargestellten Betriebs- und Einbaudaten. TABELLE 1 Betriebsdaten Fertiger: Dieselmotor Hydraulik Drehzahl Öltemperatur Temperatur des Zylinderkopfs Verschmutzungsgrad bei Temperatur des Motoröls Saug- und Rücklauffilter Öldruck Steuerdruck des Fahrantriebes re/li Kraftstoffmenge Niederdruck des Fahrantriebes re/li Betriebsstunden Hochdruck des Fahrantriebes re/li Elektrik/Elektronik Steuerstrom des Fahrantriebes rechts/links Drehzahl des Fahrantriebes rechts/links Stellung des Fahrhauptschalters Stellung des Schalters Fahrgetriebe Betriebsdaten: Einbaubohle Tamperprofil Tamperhub Tamperdrehzahl Vibrationsdruck Vibrationsfrequenz Pressleistendruck I und II Pressleistenfrequenz I Temperatur der Einbaubohle Einbaudaten: Einbaugeschwindigkeit Einbaufläche Einbauwegstrecke Einbauvolumen Einbauzeit Einbaumenge Stoppzeit Einbauleistung Einbaubreite Mischguttransport Einbaustärke Mischgutverteilung Querprofil Höhe des Mischgutes v.d. Bohle Dachprofil Anstellwinkel der Bohle Mischguttemperatur Ebenheit der Fahrbahn in Längsrichtung rechts und links This central processor system, for example, accesses the operating and installation data shown in Table 1 via suitable matching circuits. <b> TABLE 1 </ b> Operating data paver : diesel engine hydraulic rotation speed oil temperature Temperature of the cylinder head Pollution degree at Temperature of the engine oil Suction and return filter oil pressure Control pressure of the travel drive left / right Amount of fuel Low pressure of the travel drive right / left operating hours High pressure of the travel drive right / left Electric Control current of the travel drive right / left Speed of the travel drive right / left Position of the main switch Position of the switch driving gear Operating data : Screed Tamperprofil tamper stroke tamper speed vibration pressure vibration frequency Press bar pressure I and II Pressure bar frequency I Temperature of the screed Technical Manual: Paving speed mounting surface installation distance installation volume installation time installation amount stop time Mounting performance installation width Mischguttransport Layer thickness of mix cross Section Height of the mix vd Bohle roof profile Angle of attack of the screed mix temperature Flatness of the roadway in Longitudinal direction right and left

Alle ermittelten Daten werden im internen Speicher 4 gesammelt und über die Grafikeinheit 2 auf dem Monitor 3 (Farbmonitor) dem Fahrzeugführer angezeigt. Die während der Einbauphase gesammelten Daten können mit Hilfe eines PC's ausgewertet werden. Dabei erfolgt der Datentransfer vom Straßenfertiger beispielsweise in das Baubüro über Datenträger, wie beispielsweise eine Memory-Card, die den Vorteil hat robust und dabei nur scheckkartengroß zu sein. Mit Hilfe des zugehörigen Lesegeräts werden die Einbaudaten auf den PC übertragen, ausgewertet und archiviert.All determined data are collected in the internal memory 4 and displayed on the graphics unit 2 on the monitor 3 (color monitor) the driver. The data collected during the installation phase can be evaluated with the help of a PC. In this case, the data transfer from the paver, for example, in the construction office via data carriers, such as a memory card, which has the advantage of being robust and only credit card size. With the help of the associated reader, the installation data are transferred to the PC, evaluated and archived.

Zentrale Auswertefunktion ist die Erstellung eines Tageprotokolls, wie dies beispielsweise in Tabelle 2 dargestellt ist.

Central evaluation function is the creation of a day log, as shown for example in Table 2.

Ein derartiges Protokoll gemäß Tabelle 2 enthält in komprimierter Form Informationen über das aktuelle Bauvorhaben, die Betriebseinstellungen am Straßenfertiger und an der Einbaubohle sowie die gesammelten Einbaudaten als Minimal-, Mittel- und Maximalwerte.Such a protocol according to Table 2 contains in compressed form information about the current construction project, the operational settings on the paver and on the screed and the collected installation data as minimum, average and maximum values.

Optimal kann die Dokumentation auch bis auf die Ebene eines einzelnen Einbauzyklus hinunterverfolgt werden. Diese Möglichkeit bietet sich besonders dann an, wenn innerhalb eines Einbauzyklus eine besondere, wichtige Information benötigt wird, z.B. "Suche nach Gründen von Einbaufehlern".Optimally, the documentation can also be tracked down to the level of a single installation cycle. This possibility is particularly suitable if special, important information is required within an installation cycle, e.g. "Search for reasons of installation errors".

Die vom oben genannten Betriebsdatenverfassungssystem oder von vergleichbaren Systemen gesammelten Daten werden nun erfindungsgemäß nicht nur für Anzeige, Dokumentation, Archivierung verwendet, sondern auch dazu, die Einstellungen der Steuerung eines Straßenfertigers bequemer, schneller und einfacher zu gestalten. Zu diesem Zweck wird mindestens ein Betriebsparameter mindestens einer Arbeitskomponente, mit dem ein optimales Ergebnis erhalten wurde, d.h. der Betriebsparameter dieser Arbeitskomponente, der in einem Einstellvorgang unter Berücksichtigung der tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten im Betrieb zu einem optimalen Ergebnis geführt hat, gespeichert. Gleichzeitig werden eine besonders wichtige, mehrere oder so viel wie möglich der tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten, als da sind das Klima (Außentemperatur, Luftfeuchtigkeit, Windgeschwindigkeit), die Art des verwendeten Einbaumaterials, die Art der einzubauenden Fahrbahndecke, die spezielle Trassenführung (Steigung oder dgl.), die gewünschte Verdichtung der Fahrbahndecke, die Arbeitsbreite usw. mit Bezug auf diesen optimal fein eingestellten Betriebsparameter dieser speziellen Arbeitskomponente abgespeichert. Wird dann dieser Straßenfertiger auf einer neuen Baustelle eingesetzt, so kann der gespeicherte Betriebsparameter bei vergleichbaren tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten als Standardwert für eine Grundeinstellung in einem weiteren Einstellvorgang verwendet werden. Unter Umständen führt diese Grundeinstellung bereits zum optimalen Arbeitsergebnis, so dass eine Feineinstellung im weiteren Einstellvorgang nicht mehr notwendig ist. Aber selbst dann, wenn aufgrund abweichender tatsächlicher Gegebenheiten im Betrieb ein optimales Arbeitsergebnis mit dem Betriebsparameter in Grundeinstellung noch nicht erzielt werden kann, so gestaltet sich die nachfolgende Feineinstellung doch wesentlich einfacher, da in den meisten Fällen nur eine unwesentliche Feineinstellung notwendig ist.The data collected by the abovementioned company data collection system or comparable systems are now used according to the invention not only for display, documentation, archiving, but also to make the settings of the control of a paver more convenient, faster and easier. For this purpose, at least one operating parameter of at least one working component with which an optimum result was obtained, ie the operating parameter of this working component, which has led to an optimum result in a setting process taking into account the actual conditions in operation, is stored. At the same time, a particularly important, several or as many as possible of the actual conditions, as are the climate (outside temperature, humidity, wind speed), the type of paving material used, the type of pavement to be installed, the specific route (slope or the like.) , the desired compaction of the road surface, the working width, etc. with respect to this optimally fine adjusted operating parameters of this particular working component stored. If this road paver is then used on a new construction site, the stored operating parameter can be used as the standard value for a basic setting in a further setting process for comparable actual conditions. Under certain circumstances, this basic setting already leads to the optimal work result, so that a fine adjustment in the further adjustment is no longer necessary. But even if, due to deviating actual conditions in the operation, an optimal work result with the operating parameter in basic setting can not be achieved, so designed The subsequent fine adjustment but much easier, since in most cases only an insignificant fine adjustment is necessary.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Anwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens, wenn eine Vielzahl von Betriebsparametern einer Vielzahl von Arbeitskomponenten, wie sie in einem vorangegangenen Einstellvorgang in Feineinstellung erreicht wurden, in ihrer gegenseitigen Beziehung zueinander als Paket abgespeichert werden, wiederum in Bezug auf die speziellen tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten, die diese Betriebsparameter erforderten. Auf diese Weise können die Betriebsparameter auch in ihrer Beziehung zueinander als Standardwert für eine Grundeinstellung eines nachfolgenden Einstellvorganges verwendet werden, wenn die tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten vergleichbar sind.Particularly advantageous is the application of the method according to the invention, when a plurality of operating parameters of a plurality of working components, as achieved in a previous adjustment in fine adjustment, are stored in their mutual relationship to each other as a package, again in relation to the specific factual circumstances these operating parameters required. In this way, the operating parameters can also be used in their relationship to each other as a default value for a basic setting of a subsequent adjustment process, if the actual conditions are comparable.

Ob die tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten vergleichbar sind oder nicht, kann durch verschiedene Verfahren festgelegt werden. So kann beispielsweise festgelegt werden, dass ein abgespeicherter Betriebsparameter oder ein Paket von abgespeicherten Betriebsparametern zur Grundeinstellung eines weiteren Einstellvorgangs verwendet werden können, wenn die größtmögliche Anzahl tatsächlicher Gegebenheiten übereinstimmen; oder es wird eine Präferenzliste erstellt, die festlegt, welche der tatsächlichen Gegebenheiten in welchem Umfang übereinstimmen müssen, damit die abgespeicherten Betriebsparameter oder das Paket der abgespeicherten Betriebsparameter für die Grundeinstellung eines nachfolgenden Einstellvorgangs verwendet werden können.Whether the actual situation is comparable or not can be determined by various procedures. For example, it can be determined that a stored operating parameter or a set of stored operating parameters can be used for the basic setting of a further setting process if the greatest possible number of actual circumstances match; or a preference list is created which determines which of the actual circumstances must correspond to what extent, so that the stored operating parameters or the set of stored operating parameters can be used for the basic setting of a subsequent setting process.

Ein Einstellvorgang nach dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren wird um so schneller und um so genauer, je mehr einzelne Betriebsparameter für eine bestimmte Arbeitskomponente bzw. Pakete von Betriebsparametern für bestimmte tatsächliche Gegebenheiten abgespeichert sind. Demzufolge werden Feineinstellungen mit der Zeit und für Standard-Arbeitsaufgaben zunehmend überflüssig.An adjustment process according to the method according to the invention becomes the faster and the more accurate the more individual operating parameters for a specific working component or packages of operating parameters for specific actual conditions are stored. As a result, fine adjustments over time and for standard work tasks are becoming increasingly redundant.

Um die Vorteile des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens nicht nur an einem und demselben Straßenfertiger nutzen zu können, werden die abgespeicherten Betriebsparameter bzw. die Pakete der Betriebsparameter entweder zentral gespeichert und jedem Förderer, beispielsweise in Form von Ausdrucken von Einstelllisten zur Verfügung gestellt, oder auf geeigneten Speichermedien abgespeichert, beispielsweise die oben beschriebene Memory-Card, eine CD, oder dgl. die dann von der Steuerung jedes Straßenfertigers gelesen werden können. Dann wiederum können die einzustellenden Betriebsparameter entweder in einem Display erscheinen und von der Bedienperson per Hand in tatsächliche Einstellungen umgewandelt werden, oder die Daten können direkt für eine automatische Einstellung der Betriebsparameter, so weit dies möglich ist, eingesetzt werden.In order to be able to use the advantages of the method according to the invention not only on one and the same road paver, the stored operating parameters or the packets of the operating parameters are either stored centrally and each Conveyors, for example, provided in the form of printouts of setting lists, or stored on suitable storage media, such as the memory card described above, a CD, or the like. Which can then be read by the controller of each paver. Then again, the operating parameters to be set may either appear in a display and be manually converted into actual settings by the operator, or the data may be used directly for automatic adjustment of operating parameters as far as possible.
