Definitions
- a handling machine as described by JP3252006 , comprising a machine body and a handling arm mounted so as to be movable relative to the machine body.
- This machine is subjected, on the one hand, to gravitational forces due to the load carried by the handling arm and to the weight of the machine and, on the other hand, to inertial forces induced by the movements of the handling arm. These forces generate a tilting moment applied to the machine body which can cause the machine to become unbalanced or even tilt when they exceed a certain threshold.
- This machine comprises a control means for limiting the movements of the handling arm in order to prevent such tilting of the machine.
- control means decelerates and then stops the handling arm as it approaches a position of the handling arm where the tilting moment is greater than a given threshold.
- This threshold varies as a function of an angle of inclination of the handling arm relative to the ground and an approach rate at an authorized time.
- the length sensor may be a sensor arranged on a moving part coupled to the handling arm. Such a sensor may be configured to determine an actuation stroke of the extension actuator(s).
- the descent threshold and the extension threshold may be chosen in different ways, in particular with a view to excluding movements involving too high a quantity of movement, namely a quantity of movement that the machine is not able to absorb or dissipate without risk of creating instability.
- the descent threshold and/or the extension threshold are predetermined, in particular as a function of the geometry of the handling arm and the main body and previously stored in a memory on board the handling machine.
- the descent threshold and/or the extension threshold are constant.
- the method comprises determining the tilt angle of the handling arm relative to a horizontal plane or the main body of the handling machine and determining a lowering movement when the tilt angle decreases.
- the method comprises determining a length of the handling arm and determining an extension movement as the length of the handling arm increases.
- the handling arm 6 is movable in rotation by a cylinder 8 connected to the chassis 2 and to the handling arm 6.
- the handling arm 6 comprises at least two segments 6 1 and 6 2 deployable using an extension cylinder, not shown, arranged between the at least two segments 6 1 and 6 2 .
- the displacement detectors 18 comprise for example a first sensor located at the axis 7 and arranged to measure the angle of inclination of the handling arm 6.
- the displacement detectors are configured to produce a signal representative of the angle of inclination of the handling arm 6 relative to the chassis 2 according to the data of the first sensor.
- the displacement detectors 18 comprise for example a second sensor located at the extension cylinder and arranged to measure a stroke of said extension cylinder.
- the displacement detectors 18 are configured to produce a signal representative of the extension length of the handling arm 6 according to the data of the second sensor.
- the displacement sensors 18 enable the control unit 10 to determine a lowering movement and/or an extending movement of the handling arm 6.
- the control unit 10 determines a lowering movement of the handling arm 6 in response to a decrease in the tilt angle.
- the control unit 10 determines an extending movement of the handling arm 6 in response to an increase in the extension length of the handling arm 6, for example an increase in the stroke of the extension cylinder.
- the control unit 10 determines the nature of the movement of the handling arm 6. For this, several methods are possible.
- the control unit 10 comprises a processing means configured to determine a signal representative of the rotation speed of the handling arm 6 in the direction of the axis 7. In this embodiment, the control unit 10 determines a lowering movement if the rotation speed is non-zero in the direction of the ground.
- the signal relating to the rotation speed can be determined by measuring a hydraulic flow rate supplying the cylinder 8.
- the signal relating to the rotation speed can be determined as a function of a variation over time of the angle of inclination of the handling arm 6.
- the processing means is configured to determine a signal representative of the extension speed of the handling arm 6.
- the control unit 10 determines an extension movement if the extension speed is non-zero in a direction moving away from the chassis 2.
- the signal relating to the extension speed can be determined by measuring a hydraulic flow rate supplying the extension cylinder.
- the signal relating to the extension speed can be determined as a function of the variation over time of the length of the handling arm 6.
- the handling machine 1 further comprises a tilt detector 11 configured to produce a signal relating to a tilting moment applied to the chassis 2 about a tilting axis, located at the front axle 3.
- Stabilizing feet 5 can optionally be deployed to lift the front axle 3 in which case the stabilizing feet 5 define the tilting axis.
- the tilt sensor 11 is arranged at the rear axle 4.
- the rear axle 4 of the handling machine 1 comprises two wheel support arms 60 carrying rear wheels 62.
- Each wheel support arm 60 comprises an extensometer 61 configured to measure a tensile deformation of said wheel support arm 60 in a direction perpendicular to said arm 60.
- the extensometers 61 are configured to measure a bending deformation of the wheel support arm 60, in particular a length variation between two spaced terminals on the wheel support arm 60.
- the measurement signals of the extensometers 61 may be used to form the signal indicative of the tipping moment, for example as an average of the two measurement signals.
- the rear axle 4 is connected in an oscillating manner to the chassis 2 by means of a pivot 66 with a longitudinal axis passing through a central part 65 of the axle.
- the handling machine 1 further comprises a control unit 10 configured to receive the signals from the tilt detector 11 and the displacement detectors 18 and to slow down, prevent or stop the movement of the handling arm 6 if the signal representative of the tilting moment is greater than an effective threshold.
- the control unit 10 is configured to prevent or stop the movement of the handling arm 6 by reducing or stopping the hydraulic flow supplying the cylinder 8 and/or the extension cylinder.
- the value of the descent threshold is less than the value of the extension threshold, so the descent threshold represents a smaller tipping moment than the moment tilting moment represented by the extension threshold.
- the movement is stopped further from the stability limit, in terms of tilting moment, than for an approach by extending the handling arm 6 without lowering.
- This setting takes into account the fact that the inertial forces implemented when interrupting a lowering movement of the arm have a more influential effect on the stability of the machine than the inertial forces implemented when interrupting an extension movement of the arm.
- the handling machine 1 comprises a display 13 connected to the control unit 10 and configured to display a warning signal if the signal relating to the tipping moment is greater than the effective threshold.
- the handling machine comprises an extension detector 16 of the handling arm 6 configured to determine an extension of the handling arm 6.
- the extension of the handling arm is not expressly measured and the extension sensor is not required.
- the effective threshold can be determined based on the tilt angle of the handling arm without taking into account an extension measurement. Indeed, the increase in the tilting moment of the handling machine without lowering the handling arm can be considered in some cases as an implicit detection that an extension movement of the handling arm is in progress.
- control unit 10 can be configured to implement a control method 200 of the handling machine 1, as shown in the figure 3 .
- the control method 200 serves to slow down, prevent or stop the movement of the handling arm 6 in order to avoid tilting of the handling machine 1.
- control unit 10 is configured to determine the effective threshold by implementing the method 100 shown in FIG. figure 4 .
- step 102 may constitute a step of determining a movement request relating to a lowering or raising of the handling arm 6.
- the movement request may be determined by determining a particular actuation of the actuating member, for example orientation of the actuating member by a user in a predetermined direction.
- step 103 of assigning the lowering threshold to the effective threshold is performed in response to the determination of a request to lower the handling arm and step 104 of assigning the extension threshold to the effective threshold is performed in response to the determination of a request to extend the handling arm 6.
- the descent threshold and the extension threshold are preferably variable depending on whether or not the stabilizing feet 5 are deployed.
- control unit can be implemented in different forms, in a unitary or distributed manner, by means of hardware and/or software components.
- Usable hardware components are specific integrated circuits ASIC, programmable logic networks FPGA or microprocessors.
- Software components can be written in different programming languages, for example C, C++, Java or VHDL. This list is not exhaustive.
