Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for controlling the operation of at least one trolley that can be moved along a roadway, with a running gear and a lifting gear for moving an object consisting of a load suspension device with or without a loaded load, the driving and lifting gear being controlled via a control device, in particular a container crane with a trolley movable along a jib with a spreader receiving a container.
  • Cats are widely used as a means of transport when a load has to be moved.
  • a container crane that is used, for example, to load and unload a ship.
  • the cat can be moved transversely to the longitudinal axis of the ship along a jib spanning the ship, for which purpose a landing gear is provided.
  • a spreader that can be moved via a hoist and is used to grip a container hangs on the trolley via lifting ropes.
  • the crane operator sits in a cab that can be moved with the cat and controls the driving and lifting operations by hand.
  • the spreader with the container if any, hangs vertically under the cabin.
  • the invention is based on the problem of specifying a method which enables collision avoidance.
  • a method of the type according to the invention provides that braking position data specific to the travel path and / or travel path are determined continuously for the moving object and continuously compared with position data of an obstacle, the control of the travel gear and / or the lifting device depending on the Comparative.
  • the braking position data indicate the position in which the moving object would come to a standstill if the running gear and / or the lifting gear were braked normally.
  • the braking position data form a virtual arithmetic object space around the actual object, they virtually enlarge it.
  • the position data include the position coordinates in the direction of travel and the height coordinates, i.e. how high the underside of the container or spreader is at the moment. Continuous dynamics-related collision monitoring is thus carried out with particular advantage on the basis of an assumed normal braking process that is currently initiated, depending on which control of the chassis and / or the lifting mechanism takes place.
  • the crane driver is thus relieved in manual operation when the control device can intervene in the control upon detection of an impending collision if the crane driver does not recognize or do this himself.
  • a corresponding control operation is also possible in a semi-automatic or automatic trolley travel and lifting operation on the basis of the collision monitoring according to the invention.
  • the position data with respect to which the brake position data or the virtual object space data are compared can be that of a standing obstacle, for example a structure on a ship, or an existing container or container stack.
  • the position data can be brake position data of a second moving object or object that is specific to the travel path and / or the travel path.
  • the main cat which carries out the loading and unloading of the ship
  • a so-called portal cat which picks up the containers placed by the main cat on a lashing platform on the crane and becomes a means of transport such as for example, a truck, a railroad car or a driverless vehicle etc.
  • the portal trolley can also be moved along a boom. For its part, it forms a moving object with which the spreader or container of the main cat can collide in extreme cases.
  • the braking position data of this second object or object are also determined on the basis of the dynamic object data such as the current object speed or acceleration, the weight, etc.
  • the method according to the invention is based on the basic idea of being able to recognize any problem situation early enough by means of continuous situation monitoring. To make this possible, it can be provided that the distance between the braking position of the moving object and the obstacle position of the standing obstacle or between the two braking positions of two moving objects or objects can be determined as part of the comparison, depending on the Distance the speed of the travel and / or the hoist is controlled. Starting from a predeterminable distance, the speed can be reduced with decreasing distance. So there is a continuous distance check between relevant object positions.
  • the speed is reduced so that it is ensured that, due to the reduction in speed, the braking point that changes in turn is sufficiently far away from the obstacle of whatever type and that a collision occurs despite the fact that it is approaching to a large extent control intervention is avoided.
  • the brakes are stepped up to a maximum, unless the crane operator intervenes, for example, and the spreader is lifted upwards so that it can be moved over the obstacle without risk of collision.
  • the speed is expediently reduced in a non-linear manner, in particular in proportion to the root of the distance, so that the speed decreases constantly.
  • an expedient embodiment of the invention provides for to determine the braking position data taking into account a safety path. This means that a safety path is included in the determination of the position data, which ultimately adds to the braking position that arises purely arithmetically from the actual parameters. If, for example, the position data determination reveals that the braking distance currently given during normal braking is six meters from the current position, a safety distance can be added to this braking distance, the total distance then defining the braking position date.
  • the safety path can always be constant and therefore independent of the actual operation, it has proven to be expedient if the safety path depends on the speed of the object in driving and / or stroke direction is determined. This is based on the idea that the safety path must be greater the faster the object is moved in the driving and / or lifting direction.
  • the safety path can decrease with decreasing speed, preferably proportionally. This means that at 100% speed, the parameterizable safety path is 100%, which is maximum. At 50% of the maximum speed, the safety path is only 50%.
  • the spreader including the container, may hang from the cat over several, usually eight, lifting ropes.
  • the spreader / container can oscillate, which overall increases the collision-causing object space and, according to the invention, is also taken into account when determining the braking position data. This can take into account both a braking-related pendulum travel directed in the direction of movement and the commuting travel directed against the direction of travel.
  • the virtual object space can therefore be composed of three parts, namely the object space that arises purely from a mathematical point of view, plus the object space that is caused by the safety path, plus the object space that is caused by the pendulum.
  • the method according to the invention offers a considerable degree of collision safety both in manual and in (semi) automatic operation of the crane system.
  • the travel path and / or travel path-specific braking position data in a computing device working in parallel with the control device, the travel path and / or travel path-specific braking position data, but assuming a maximum braking deceleration of the driving and / or of the hoist are determined and compared with position data of an obstacle, the maximum permissible speed of the object in the driving and / or lifting direction being determined as a function of the comparison and compared with the current actual speed, with the maximum permissible speed being exceeded by the Actual speed, the computing device initiates emergency braking.
  • the position data is determined by the control device assuming a normal braking deceleration.
  • the monitoring computing device works under the assumption of emergency braking, that is to say a significantly greater braking deceleration, as is the basis of an emergency stop.
  • emergency braking that is to say a significantly greater braking deceleration
  • the distance to the next obstacle is then determined, be it in the direction of travel and / or in the direction of the stroke, and the speed permissible at the calculated distance is determined in the computing device. If the control device is working correctly, this is usually equal to the setpoint, which the control device specifies, if the distance to the obstacle is sufficiently large.
  • the control device calculates a longer braking distance, the target speed value would have to be reduced, since the distance between the brake position data calculated on the control side and the obstacle is always smaller than that of the computing device data recorded on the equipment side. If, however, the comparison of the speed calculated on the computing device side with the current actual speed reveals that the actual speed is higher, the control device inevitably makes an error, since the actual value may at most be the same or less. In such a case, the computing device intervenes and initiates emergency braking.
  • the invention further relates to a crane system, in particular a container crane, with at least one trolley which can be moved along a roadway, with a trolley and a hoist for moving an object, consisting of a load suspension device with or without a lifted load, the driving and the hoist can be controlled via a control device.
  • the crane system according to the invention is characterized in that the control device is designed for a collision-free movement of the object for controlling the travel and / or lifting mechanism as a function of a comparison between continuously determined travel position and / or travel path-specific brake position data of the object and position data of an obstacle.
  • the position data taken into account in the comparison can be that of a standing obstacle or the simultaneously determined travel position and / or travel path-specific braking position data of a second moving object or object.
  • the control device itself can be designed to determine the braking position data on the basis of static data describing the geometry of the object or the object and on the basis of dynamic data describing the momentary movement of the object or the object.
  • the dynamic data include, for example, the actual speed or the braking distances (deceleration), etc.
  • the control device can, according to the invention, have a subtracting element and can be designed to control the speed of the travel and / or lifting mechanism as a function of the determined distance.
  • a limit controller is expediently provided, by means of which the speed setpoint for the travel and / or the hoist can be limited.
  • the path limitation rule can reduce the setpoint with decreasing distance, with maximum use of the available braking torque. If the distance decreases, the speed setpoint, and thus the speed, is constantly reduced, so that slow braking begins with increasing approach.
  • the setpoint and thus the speed are expediently reduced in a non-linear manner, in particular in proportion to the root of the distance.
  • control device can be designed to determine the braking position data, taking into account a safety path that is preferably to be taken into account additively, wherein the safety path can expediently be determined as a function of the speed of the object in the driving and / or lifting direction.
  • a safety path that changes depending on the actual speed of the object in the driving and / or lifting direction can also be taken into account by the control device.
