Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a crane, in particular a tower crane, with a hoist cable that runs off a boom and carries a load-carrying device, drive devices for moving a plurality of crane elements and movement of the load-carrying device, a control device for controlling the drive devices in such a way that the load-carrying device moves along a travel path , as well as a pendulum damping device for damping pendulum movements of the load-carrying means, the said pendulum-damping device having a pendulum sensor system for detecting pendulum movements of the hoist rope and/or the load-carrying means and a controller module with a closed control circuit for influencing the activation of the drive devices as a function of pendulum signals generated by the pendulum sensors indicate detected pendulum movements and are fed back to the control loop.
  • the invention also relates to a method for controlling a crane, in which the actuation of the drive devices is influenced by a sway damping device as a function
  • the luffing drive for luffing the boom up and down and the telescoping drive are also used - Actuates and extends the telescopic sections, possibly also a luffing jib drive if there is a luffing jib on the telescopic boom.
  • a luffing jib drive if there is a luffing jib on the telescopic boom.
  • the drive devices mentioned are usually actuated and controlled by the crane operator using appropriate operating elements, for example in the form of joysticks, toggle switches, rotary knobs and sliders and the like, which experience has shown requires a lot of feeling and experience in order to approach the target points quickly and yet gently without major pendulum movements of the load hook. While the target points should be driven as quickly as possible in order to achieve a high work output, the target point should be stopped gently without the load hook swinging with the load attached to it.
  • Such anti-sway devices for cranes are known in various designs, for example by controlling the slewing gear, luffing and trolley drives as a function of certain sensor signals, for example inclination and/or gyroscope signals.
  • certain sensor signals for example inclination and/or gyroscope signals.

  • a load swing damping system for maritime cranes is known from the Liebherr company under the name "Cycoptronic", which calculates load movements and influences such as wind in advance and, based on this precalculation, automatically initiates compensation movements in order to prevent the load from swinging.
  • this system also uses gyroscopes to record the cable angle relative to the vertical and its changes in order to intervene in the control depending on the gyroscope signals.
  • Dynamic effects and elastic deformation of the structural parts occur in the area of the structural parts, in particular the tower and jib, when a drive is accelerated or braked, so that interventions in the drive devices - for example braking or accelerating the trolley drive or the slewing gear - are not direct affect the pendulum movement of the load hook in the desired way.
  • time delays in the transmission to the hoist rope and the load hook can occur due to dynamic effects in the structural parts if drives are operated in a sway-dampening manner.
  • the dynamic effects mentioned can also have excessive or even counterproductive effects on a load swing. If, for example, a load swings backwards towards the tower as a result of initially operating the trolley drive too quickly and the swing damping device counteracts this by decelerating the trolley drive, the jib can pitch, since the tower deforms accordingly, which impairs the desired swing-damping effect can be.
  • the writings DE 10 2011 001 112 A1 , EP 25 74 819 A1 and DE 10 2010 038 218 A1 describe crane control systems which, in order to reduce vibrations in the structure of the crane during slewing movements, provide that system parameters in the form of the natural frequency and the damping rate of the crane system are automatically calculated during operation and the control signal as an active speed reference profile can be calculated in real time from an operator signal of the operator and the calculated natural frequency under damping rate of the crane system.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved crane and an improved method for its control, which avoid the disadvantages of the prior art and develop the latter in an advantageous manner.
  • the aim should preferably be to move the payload in accordance with the crane operator's setpoint values and to actively dampen undesired pendulum movements by means of a control system, while at the same time undesired movements of the structural dynamics are not stimulated but also dampened by the control system in order to increase safety, facilitate to achieve usability and automation.
  • improved pendulum damping is to be achieved in tower cranes, which takes better account of the diverse influences of the crane structure.
  • the pendulum-damping measures not only take into account the actual pendulum movement of the cable itself, but also the dynamics of the crane structure or the steel construction of the crane and its drive trains.
  • the crane is no longer assumed to be an immobile rigid body that converts the drive movements of the drive devices directly and identically, ie 1:1, into movements of the suspension point of the hoist rope.
  • the sway damping device considers the crane as a soft structure that shows elasticity and resilience during acceleration in its steel construction or structural parts such as the tower lattice and the boom, and in its drive trains, and takes these dynamics of the structural parts of the crane into account when influencing the sway damping Control of the drive devices.

  • the structural dynamics can be neglected to determine the pre-control, which means that the crane, especially the tower crane, can be represented as a flat system with the load coordinates as flat outputs.
  • the pilot control and the calculation of the reference states of the two-degree-of-freedom structure are calculated in contrast to the feedback control of the closed control loop, neglecting the structural dynamics, ie the crane is considered to be rigid or so-to-speak for the purposes of the pilot control assumed infinitely stiff structure. Due to the small deflections of the elastic structure, which are very small compared to the crane movements to be carried out by the drives, this only leads to very small and therefore negligible deviations in the pilot control.
  • the description of the tower crane which is assumed to be rigid for the purposes of the pilot control, in particular the tower crane, is made possible as a flat system which can be easily inverted. The coordinates of the load position are flat exits of the system. From the flat outputs and their time derivatives, the required course of the manipulated variables and the system states can be calculated exactly algebraically (inverse system) - without simulation or optimization. This allows the load to be brought to a target position without overshooting.
  • the load position required for the flatness-based pilot control and its derivatives can advantageously be calculated by a trajectory planning module and/or by setpoint filtering. If a target curve for the load position and its first four time derivatives is now determined via trajectory planning or setpoint filtering, the exact curve of the necessary control signals for controlling the drives, as well as the exact curve of the corresponding system states, can be calculated from this in the pre-control using algebraic equations.
