Description
A Method And Device For Steering An Industrial Truck The present invention
relates to a method and device for steering an indus-
trial truck.
DE 43 03 342 has made known a steering device for end loading and side loading fork trucks which are provided with several vehicle axes steerable independently of each other and have associated therewith a servomotor each. As a servo-motor, a high-speed electric motor is provided which is geared down very much via a set of gears. The control signals for the servomotors are generated by a steering computer each.
WO 93/02906 has made known a vehicle having steerable front and rear wheels which has a multiplicity of control modes. The suggestion for a shift from one control mode over to another control mode is that such wheels be shifted over by groups each. This allows to shift from one steering mode over to the next one during a travel.
DE 39 42 494 has made known a rear-wheel steering assembly for a four-
wheel steered vehicle. For a correction of the straight-forward travel, a measuring device is provided which detects the front-wheel steering force, front-wheel lateral force, and lateral acceleration of the vehicle. The correction of the wheel positions is made in such a way that these forces and the lateral acceleration substantially are zero. GB 2 232 941 A has made known a steering device for a motor vehicle. In the motor vehicle, the rear wheels are calculated depending on the steering angle for the front wheels and the vehicle speed. For a consideration of the speed, the rotational speed is measured for the front and rear wheels. The steering angle lock for the rear wheels is controlled in dependence on the quotient of speeds. The steering-angle lock for the rear wheels is controlled in dependence on the quotient of speeds.
DE 39 11 453 Al has made known a rear-wheel steering device in which the rear wheels of the vehicle are biased by springs to a neutral position to steer them. A rear-wheel steering mechanism regulates the rear wheels against this resistance.
EP O 512 591 has made known a rear-wheel steering device in which either the left-hand or the right-hand rear wheel is controlled in dependence on the steering angle lock of the front wheel.
It is the object of the invention to provide an industrial truck the steering device of which allows for reliable and safe operation in the different steering modes of operation.
According to the invention, the object is achieved by the features of claim 1.
Advantageous aspects form the subject matter of the dependent claims.
The method relates to industrial trucks having three or more steerable wheels which can be brought into different steering modes of operation by at least one steering controller. An example of such a steering mode of operation is the normal travel at which all of the wheels are oriented at 0 to the vehicle's longitudinal direction and only one driving wheel is controlled for steering the industrial truck. It is contrasted, for example, by the modified normal travel at which all of the wheels are also oriented at 0 to the vehicle's longitudinal direction, but four- wheel steering is effected. Further, the industrial truck has a travel controller which carries out a control of the drive according to the preset values. The steering and travel controllers belong to a control for the industrial truck. The control can have physically separated control units or can be integrated into a control unit. Further, a control unit such as the steering controller can serve as a higher-rank control.
According to the invention, each steering mode of operation has associated therewith a set of at least one travel parameter. The travel controller uses the set associated with the actual steering mode of operation to control the drive and/or brake of the industrial truck. The advantage of the invention is that the operator of the industrial truck, in a cost-effective way, is automatically supplied only with
those travel parameters which ensure a safe running performance. The controllability and, hence, the safety of the vehicle are improved by selecting the sets of the travel parameters, thereby reducing the hazard of accidents. Since the solution can be implemented into existing controls no additional costs will accrue.
In a preferred continuation aspect of the inventive method, each set of travel parameters contains the maximum speed, as a parameter. It is preferred to additionally provide a maximum acceleration, as a travel parameter. In another advantageous aspect, the set of travel parameters also contains values of the delay, particularly values for the reversing brake and/or coasting brake. In addition, the parameters for the steeringwheel gear ratio and emergency stop inclines may also differ. The limitation of travel parameters to maximum values for the speed, acceleration and/or delay serves the purpose of avoiding an overload or instable positions of the industrial truck in certain steering modes of operation.
In one steering mode of operation, the wheels have a basic position in which the industrial trucks substantially turns in place. The respective set of travel parameters limit the maximum speed for the drive, preferably to a speed of about 4 krnJh. The limitation of speed ensures that the centrifugal forces acting on the driver and load do not become too large. In this steering mode of operation, acceleration is limited to 5 and the delay to 3 on a scale ranging from O to 9.
The inventive object is also achieved by a device for steering the industrial truck which has a steering control and a travel control. The steering control and travel control are preferably interconnected via a data bus to exchange data and control signals. In the inventive device, the steering control sends a signal which, when received by the travel control, signals to it what the steering mode of operation is and, hence, which set of travel parameters is provided to control the drive. In other words, this means that the travel control works independently of the actual steering mode of operation.
In a preferred aspect, the steering controller for the driving wheel generates the signals for the Gavel controller. In a preferred aspect, a CAN bus is provided as a data bus.
In another steering mode of operation in which the basic setting of all wheels is 90 crosswise to the vehicle's longitudinal direction the respective set of travel parameters have a maximum acceleration value. Since the driven wheel is located off the centre very much in the steering mode of operation, which is also referred to as cross-line travel, twists and torsions of the vehicle body can occur because of the mass inertia during a heavy acceleration. To avoid them, the maximum acceleration is limited during cross-line travels. It is preferred that the steering gear ratio be increased to prevent the vehicle from responding too sensitively to a steering wheel lock. The inventive method will be described in more detail below with reference to the Figures that follow. In the Figures, Figs. la- le show basic settings of the wheels for various steering modes of operation, and Fig. 2 shows a block diagram of the control.
Figs la through le schematically show a view of an industrial truck 10 with a driving wheel 12 in the vehicle body 14. Steerable load-carrying wheels 16 and 18 are also provided on the load-carrying arms 20 and 22.
Fig. 1 a shows the normal travel during which the driving wheel and the load-
carrying wheels enclose 0 to the vehicle's longitudinal direction A, in the basic position. Steering is exclusively performed via the driving wheel during the normal travel. The steering angle is limited to + 95 here or 360 continuous steering is performed. Fig. lb shows the basic position for a modified normal travel which does not differ from the basic position of the normal travel in Fig. la. In the normal travel, however, four-wheel steering is done in the arrangement shown by the double-ended
arrows. The steering angles of the driving wheels and load-carrying wheels are individually regulated here, depending on the steering-angle lock in order to achieve a manoeuvrability as high as possible within a very close space. The steering-angle lock is + 95 here or 360 continuous steering is performed.
Fig. to shows the basic position for the cross-line travel during which the driving wheel and load-carrying wheels are positioned at 90 crosswise to the vehicle's longitudinal direction. As is indicated by the double-ended arrows steering is done via the load-carrying wheels with the steering controller, taking into account the direction of travel and the existing wheel position, makes a distinction as to whether carry out a wheel position change to the left or right. Left and right each refer to the line of sight towards the load picked up from the operator's place, i.e. from the vehicle body to the load-carrying arms.
Fig. id shows the basic position of the wheels for the diagonal-line travel to the right. All wheels are turned in rightwards by 45 with respect to the "normal travel" basic position. As is indicated by the double-ended arrows four-wheel steering is done with the steering angle of the driving wheel and load-carrying wheels being different, depending on the steering-angle lock. In correspondence to the diagonal-line travel to the right, there is a further steering mode of operation in which all wheels are turned in leftwards by 45 , in the basic setting.
The case not shown is the parallel travel during which the wheels are aligned with the vehicle's longitudinal direction, in the basic position. Like during the modified normal travel, four-wheel steering is also done during the parallel travel.
However, steering is done here so as to move all of the three wheels through the same steering angle. The parallel-travel steering mode of operation allows to move the vehicle in the diagonal and cross directions with no turn of the vehicle's longitudinal axis.
Fig. le shows the steering mode of operation which allows a turn within a minimum space. The driving wheel is located crosswise to the vehicle's longitudinal
direction and the load-carrying wheels are positioned so that the industrial truck moves about a centre of rotation M located between the wheels. The steering wheel is inactive here.
Fig. 2 shows a block diagram for the flow of the control. The control for an industrial truck including two load-carrying wheels and one driving wheel has three independent steering controllers 24, 26, 28. The steering controllers 24 to 28 provide one wheel each. The setpoints for the steering angles are calculated in a central control unit. The control unit has provided thereto the actual steering-wheel position which is determined by a setpoint sensor system 34. In an advantageous aspect, this control is integrated into one of the steering controllers.
Also provided to the control unit 30 is the accelerator pedal position 36 via a potentiometer 38. Such data are processed according to an actual set of travel parameters in a travel controller 42.
In the example, the set of travel parameters is not predetermined by the central control unit 30, but the steering controller 28 for the driving wheel supplies a so-called CAN telegram 44 which is distributed by the CAN bus 46. However, it is also possible for the steering controller 28 to serve as a master for the other steering controllers and possibly as a travel controller, too, thereby assuming the mission of the control unit 30. CAN bus means Controlled Area Network bus here. Via the data line 48, the message for the actual steering mode of operation arrives at the travel controller 40. The travel controller 40, responding to the message for the actual steering mode of operation, selects the respective set of travel parameters.
The travel parameters comprise: speed of travel, acceleration, reversing brake, and coasting brake. One or a plurality of travel parameters may prove to differ in the different sets of travel parameters. Likewise, it is possible that several steering modes of operation make use of the same set of travel parameters. The steering mode of operation "Turning within a minimum space" limits the speed of travel to about 4 km/in to confine the resultant centrifugal forces to the driver and the
load. At the same time, the acceleration of the industrial truck and the speed of travel are limited to about 8.5 km/in in the cross-travel mode of operation. A maximum speed of travel which is about 12 km/in is allowed for the normal travel.
By way of example, a set of travel parameters is indicated below for the steering modes of operation of a travel in a circle, normal travel, modified normal travel, cross travel, parallel travel, and diagonal travel, as an example each. Each set of parameters comprises the following magnitudes: acceleration, coasting brake, reversing brake, speed of travel, emergency stop incline, and steering-wheel gear ratio. The emergency stop incline and the steering-wheel gear ratio are two different delays each while the absolute magnitudes, i.e. km/in, are predetermined for the maximum speed of travel in the travel parameters. AISO7 the steering-wheel gear ratio is given as a correct gear ratio, as a travel parameter. The acceleration, delay with the coasting brake and reversing brake as well as the emergency stop incline are given as parameters on a scale ranging from 0 to 9. Pararneterisation has the advantage that the values are predetermined and set independently of the drive, battery and the like. The emergency stop incline is a travel parameter which indicates the intensity at which braking is to be done in an emergency case.
The sets of parameters are indicated, by way of example, for the different steering modes of operation:
