其中,图中的标号为:1-永磁体,2-移动平台,3-电磁铁,4-直线导轨模块,5-曲线导轨模块。
具体实施方式
为了便于本领域技术人员的理解,下面结合附图对本发明作进一步的描述。
如附图1-2所示,所述基于电磁驱动和传感模块的可组装自动化运输系统包括有:一个或多个用于进行物料运输的移动平台2,用于限定移动平台2的移动轨迹的导轨,分布于导轨上的由多个电磁铁3组成的电磁模块,以及设置于移动平台2底部的永磁体1。
其中,移动平台2的数量可以根据实际需要来确定,即运输系统可以根据实际需要来对相应数量的移动平台2进行组装。各移动平台2设置于所述导轨上且可在所述导轨上移动,各移动平台2上设置有用于控制移动平台2在导轨上移动的控制模块;导轨上还设置有用于获取所述移动平台 2在轨道上的位置信息的位置检测模块,该位置检测模块将获取的所述位置信息转换为相应的电信号反馈至所述控制模块中;控制模块接收具有所述位置信息的电信号,并在计算出电磁模块各电磁铁3中的线圈所需的通电电流大小后,输出控制各电磁铁3的线圈所需通电电流的信号,以使所述永磁体1与电磁模块之间产生的电磁力作为移动平台2在所述导轨上移动的驱动力,从而控制所述移动平台2在导轨上的移动。
在本实施例中,所述永磁体1优选为永磁铁,且该永磁铁通过过盈配合嵌入在移动平台2底部设置的方槽内。本实施例中的导轨包括直线导轨模块4和/或曲线导轨模块5,通过对直线导轨模块4与曲线导轨模块5的组合或组装,可以得到所述移动平台2所需的任意移动(或运动)轨迹,以满足物料运输过程中的不同要求。其中,所述电磁模块中的各电磁铁3,其按照一定的规律分布在直线导轨模块4或曲线导轨模块5上,各电磁铁3的数量和距离可根据实际需要设置。本实施例中,各电磁铁3在所述直线导轨模块上或曲线导轨模块上呈阵列分布,如附图1-2所示。
作为本发明的优选实施例,所述位置检测模块为电磁传感器,该电磁传感器设置于所述电磁铁的线圈中,每一移动平台的位置均可以由电磁传感器测得,即移动平台的位置是基于电磁传感来检测获得的。由于移动平台的动子为永磁铁,位置检测模块为设置于电磁铁中的电磁传感器,因此无需在移动平台上安装任何的位置检测元件,进而移动平台也不需要连接任何信号线或电源线。当然,所述位置检测模块也可以是其他具有位置检测功能的传感器,只要是可以检测到各移动平台在轨道上的位置信息,并将其反馈到所述控制模块即可。
在本实施例中,所述控制模块包括有控制器、以及与该控制器连接的电流放大器,各电磁铁的线圈的通电电流由所述电流放大器提供,如附图3所示。本发明实施例中,控制模块在计算出电磁模块各电磁铁中的线圈所需的通电电流大小后,输出控制各电磁铁的线圈所需通电电流的信号为电压信号,该电压信号先通过一电流放大器进行处理,然后经过该电流放大器处理后再输出电磁铁的线圈所需的通电电流,使得各电磁铁具有相应 的磁性,使其与移动平台底部设置的永磁体产生相应的电磁力,从而控制所述移动平台在导轨上的移动。
考虑到单个移动平台在导轨上运输物料过程中移动到不同的位置时,并不是所有的电磁铁都会对移动平台产生影响,距离移动平台较远的电磁铁对移动平台的影响可以忽略不计,因此并不需要所有电磁铁都配置一个电流放大器。作为本发明的优选实施例,本实施例中采用一个电流放大器的输出端并联多个电磁铁的方案,通过控制器产生的数字信号选择导轨上距离移动平台较近而能产生有效电磁力的电磁铁的线圈通电,但同一时间只为一个线圈通电。其中,控制器可以通过接收各电磁传感器反馈的位置信息判断来距离移动平台较近的且需要产生电磁力的电磁铁的线圈。
如附图4所示,本实施例中所述的控制模块包括有一控制器与一电流放大器,所述控制器具有一用于控制各电磁铁的线圈的通电电流大小的电压信号输出端,以及一用于选择各电磁铁的线圈通电的线圈通电选择信号输出端;各电磁铁的线圈均串联连接有一开关模块,各开关模块的控制端均与所述线圈通电选择信号输出端连接,各开关模块的输入端与所述电流放大器的输出端并联连接,所述电流放大器的输入端与所述电压信号输出端连接;各电磁铁的线圈的通电电流由所述电流放大器提供,所述控制器通过线圈通电选择信号输出端发出相应的线圈通电选择信号,使对应的开关模块导通,从而使得所述电流放大器为所需的线圈供电,但同一电流放大器同一时间内只为一个线圈供电。
在实际应用中,电流放大器的输出端并联连接的开关模块的数量可以根据实际需要设置,即电流放大器与电磁铁的线圈的连接数量可根据需要来设置;同时,电流放大器与控制器的数量也可根据实际需要来设置。
另外需要说明的是,在图3与图4中,其提供了线圈具体的电路连接方式:线圈的一端直接与电流放大器连接或通过开关模块与电流放大器连接,线圈的另一端接地;在实际应用中,可根据实际情况来选择线圈的具体连接方式,如假如电流放大器采用为PWM式的电流放大器,则线圈的两端均与电流放大器连接。当然,线圈还可以采用其他的连接方式, 只要是为实现电流放大器为线圈提供所需的通电电流的连接方式即可。
所述控制器在经过一系列运算后将会输出两个信号:用于控制各电磁铁的线圈的通电电流大小的电压信号,以及用于选择各电磁铁的线圈通电的线圈通电选择信号。控制线圈电流大小的电压信号自电压信号输出端输出至电流放大器,电流放大器将该电压信号进行放大等处理后输出相应的电流信号(电流放大器输出的电流大小和输入电流放大器的电压信号呈线性关系),再经开关模块输出至相应的线圈中;而用于选择各电磁铁的线圈通电的线圈通电选择信号自所述线圈通电选择信号输出端输出到开关模块的控制端,该线圈通电选择信号使相应的开关模块导通,从而使得经电流放大器处理后输出的电流信号输出到目标线圈(即此时需要通电的电磁铁的线圈)中。所述线圈通电选择信号与开关模块用于确保在同一时间内,电流放大器输出端输出的电流信号只输出到目标线圈中,即在同一时间内,只有与目标线圈连接的开关模块是导通的,而其他与非目标线圈连接的开关模块是处于关断状态的。
优选地,本实施例中的开关模块由两场效应管组成,两场效应管的栅极相互连接作为开关模块的控制端,两场效应管的漏极相互连接,其中一场效应管的源极作为开关模块的输入端与所述电流放大器的输出端连接,另一场效应管的源极作为开关模块的输出端与所述线圈的输入端连接,如附图4所示。图4中,两个场效应管反向串联保证开关模块双向不导通,当与目标线圈连接的开关模块中的场效应管的栅极有信号(即线圈通电选择信号)输入时,两个场效应管同时导通;此时,电流放大器输出端的电流信号经过该开关模块输出到目标线圈中,而由于其他开关模块此时处于关断状态,因此与其他开关模块对应连接的非目标线圈此时均处于非通电状态。
利用本实施例中的开关模块,若要为目标线圈通电,控制器的线圈通电选择信号输出端只需输出相应的信号,使与目标线圈连接的开关模块中 的场效应管导通,而其余的开关模块中的场效应管均为关断状态即可。当然,也可以采用其他具有类似功能的电路模块来实现上述开关模块的功能。
下面对本实施例提供的可组装自动化运输系统的工作原理或工作过程作简要的说明:本实施例中的可组装自动化运输系统采用闭环控制方式,移动平台所受电磁力与电磁铁的线圈和移动平台间的相对位置有一定的关系,每个电磁铁提供的电磁力与其中的电流成正比,经过计算可以建立通过单位电流时所有电磁铁提供的电磁力与永磁铁位置之间关系的模型(本发明中将其称之为模型一);移动平台受到单位力时各电磁铁线圈通电电流的最优解也可以被计算出来,因此产生单位大小合力时所有电磁铁线圈的通电电流与移动平台位置之间关系的模型(本发明中将其称之为模型二)也是可以建立的。
在上述模型一与模型二的建立过程中,模型一可用安培力公式建立,即
Figure PCTCN2016072101-appb-000001
其中
Figure PCTCN2016072101-appb-000002
其中R’为永磁铁上的点,R为电磁铁上的点,μ0为真空磁导率,π为圆周率,▽为拉普拉斯算子,M为磁铁极化强度,n为磁铁各表面的法线方向,V为磁铁的体积,S为磁铁的表面积。
当式中I为单位电流并取F移动平台运动方向的分量时就可以得到模型一:
K=f(x)。
可知模型一是与移动平台位置相关的函数,当移动平台运动方向上有n个线圈时,每个线圈的模型一都可以求出,那么移动平台在任意位置受到的力可以用下式表达:
F=Ku。
其中:
K=[K1…Kn]为1×n的行向量;
u=[u1…un]T为n×1的列向量。
K1…Kn为移动平台处于任意位置时每一个电磁铁模型一对应的值u1…un为每个电磁铁中通入的电流大小。为求得通入电流大小的最优解使所有电流大小的平方和最小,即使电磁铁消耗功率最小,u可以通过下式计算出来:
u=[K]T([K][K]T)-1F。
取F为单位力,将移动平台处于不同位置时某电磁铁对应的u的大小关系进行拟合就可以得到该电磁铁的模型二。可知模型二同样是与移动平台位置相关的函数,每一个电磁铁对应的模型二也都是可以求得的。
由于计算线圈通电电流的最优解需要进行求逆运算,其会占用控制模块中的控制器的大量运存,建立上述两个模型可以大大优化系统程序提高系统实时性。可以将上述两个模型(模型一与模型二)预先保存于控制器中,只需要输入移动平台的位置信息通过模型一就可以计算每一个线圈通单位电流时提供的力,通过模型二就可以计算为产生单位合力每个线圈应该通入的电流大小从而避免了实时求解逆矩阵的操作。移动平台的实际位置可以通过所述的电磁传感器测得,将位置误差,即给定的移动平台位置(或者说移动平台所要移动到的目标位置)与移动平台此刻的实际位置之间的偏差,输入所述控制器(该控制器可实现PID运算)后可以得到移动平台所需驱动力的理论值,当位置已知且所需驱动力已知时,控制器便可以通过上述模型二得到每个电磁铁的线圈中所需的通电电流,控制器输出相应的电压信号通过电流放大器将所需的通电电流输入到各电磁铁的线圈中,从而实现对移动平台在导轨上的移动的控制。
本发明实施例提供的可组装自动化运输系统,其采用电磁模块来进行电磁驱动,不需要外置的动力装置来驱动移动平台移动,因此也无需任何的中间传动装置,相对于现有的运输系统,其结构更加简单,噪声也更小;而且,电磁模块中各电磁铁的线圈的通电状态可以独立控制,使得导轨上 的各个移动平台也可以独立控制,运输系统可根据需要由各个可独立控制的移动平台组装而成,因此在物料运输的过程中,可以针对各个不同的工件进行独立输送控制,相对于现有的运输系统,其对于物料的输送过程显得更加灵活方便;另外,由于移动平台的动子为永磁铁,位置检测模块为设置于电磁铁中的电磁传感器,因此无需在移动平台上安装任何的位置检测元件,进而移动平台也不需要连接任何信号线或电源线,因而在物料的运输过程中也显得非常方便,只需对直线导轨模块4与曲线导轨模块5进行组合或组装,以得到所述移动平台所需的移动轨迹,即可以满足物料运输过程中的不同要求。
上述实施例中提到的内容为本发明较佳的实施方式,并非是对本发明的限定,在不脱离本发明构思的前提下,任何显而易见的替换均在本发明的保护范围之内。
