Description

作業機および作業機の接触監視システムWork equipment and work equipment contact monitoring system
 本発明は、作業機および作業機の接触監視システムに関する。 The present invention relates to a working machine and a contact monitoring system for the working machine.
 従来、大規模な建築現場等において、建築作業の効率化を図るために、建築現場内に配置された複数の作業機(例えば、クレーン)により、荷物の搬送作業が、複数の箇所で行われる。この際、建築現場内に配置されたクレーンは、互いの作業可能範囲が重複するように配置されている場合がある。つまり、作業可能範囲が重複するクレーン同士は、搬送タイミングや作業姿勢によって接触する可能性がある。各クレーンの操縦者は、無線等によって他の操縦者と連絡を密にとりながらクレーン同士の接触を回避しつつ搬送作業を行う。 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a large-scale construction site or the like, in order to improve the efficiency of the construction work, a plurality of work machines (for example, cranes) arranged in the construction site perform the work of transporting the luggage at a plurality of places. . At this time, the cranes arranged in the building site may be arranged so that their workable ranges overlap each other. That is, there is a possibility that cranes having overlapping workable ranges will come into contact with each other depending on the transfer timing and the working posture. The operator of each crane performs a transport operation while avoiding contact between the cranes while keeping close contact with other operators by radio or the like.
 操縦者は、自身が操縦するクレーン(以下、「自機」と称する。)の作業可能範囲と重複する作業可能範囲を有する他のクレーン(以下、「他機」と称する。)の作動状態を確認しながら自機を操縦しなければならないため、作業効率が低下するといった問題があった。そこで、衝突の可能性が生じた場合に警報装置等によって操縦者に報知するとともにクレーンを自動的に停止させるクレーン近接警報装置が知られている(特許文献1参照)。 The operator operates the other cranes (hereinafter, referred to as "other machines") having a workable range overlapping with the workable range of the crane (hereinafter, referred to as "own machine") operated by the operator. There is a problem that the work efficiency is reduced because the user has to operate the aircraft while checking. Therefore, there is known a crane proximity alarm device that alerts a driver by an alarm device or the like when a possibility of collision occurs and automatically stops the crane (see Patent Document 1).
 特許文献1に記載のクレーン近接警報装置は、自機(クレーン)の制御装置と複数の他機(例えば、クレーン)の制御装置とが無線通信等により接続されている。クレーン近接警報装置は、それぞれの制御装置が制御情報等の各種情報を互いに取得し、制御信号を送信する。クレーン近接警報装置は、取得した各クレーンの情報に基づいて、各クレーンのシミュレーションモデルを作成して衝突をシミュレーションする。クレーン近接警報装置は、クレーン同士が衝突すると判定した場合、操縦者に報知するとともに近接が継続されるとクレーンを停止させる。このようなクレーン近接警報装置は、クレーン同士の接触を回避できる。但し、クレーンを強制的に停止させるため、作業効率が大きく低下する可能性がある。 In the crane proximity alarm device described in Patent Literature 1, a control device of its own machine (crane) and control devices of a plurality of other machines (for example, cranes) are connected by wireless communication or the like. In the crane proximity alarm device, each control device mutually acquires various information such as control information and transmits a control signal. The crane proximity alarm device creates a simulation model of each crane based on the acquired information of each crane and simulates a collision. When it is determined that the cranes collide with each other, the crane proximity alarm device notifies the operator and stops the crane when the proximity is continued. Such a crane proximity warning device can avoid contact between cranes. However, since the crane is forcibly stopped, there is a possibility that the working efficiency is greatly reduced.

 ステップS140において、制御装置32は、最短距離Lmが接触判定の閾値である接触基準値Ls未満か否か判定する。 In step S140, the control device 32 determines whether or not the shortest distance Lm is less than a contact reference value Ls, which is a contact determination threshold.
 その結果、最短距離Lmが接触基準値Ls未満である場合(ステップS140において“YES”)、すなわち、クレーン1とクレーン2とが接触する可能性があると判定した場合、制御装置32は、制御処理をS150に移行させる。 As a result, if the shortest distance Lm is less than the contact reference value Ls (“YES” in step S140), that is, if it is determined that there is a possibility that the crane 1 and the crane 2 will come into contact, the control device 32 performs control. The process shifts to S150.
 一方、最短距離Lmが接触基準値Ls未満でない場合(ステップS140において“NO”)、すなわち、クレーン1とクレーン2とが接触しないと判定した場合、制御装置32は、制御処理をステップS110に移行させる。 On the other hand, if the shortest distance Lm is not less than the contact reference value Ls (“NO” in step S140), that is, if it is determined that the crane 1 and the crane 2 do not contact, the control device 32 shifts the control processing to step S110. Let it.
 ステップS150において、制御装置32は、クレーン2の搬送経路R2における接触区間の両端位置である位置P2cおよび位置P2dを算出する。そして、制御装置32は、制御処理をステップS160に移行させる。 In step S150, the control device 32 calculates a position P2c and a position P2d, which are both end positions of the contact section on the transport route R2 of the crane 2. Then, control device 32 shifts the control processing to step S160.
 ステップS160において、制御装置32は、往路においてクレーン2が搬送作業を開始する時間t0から位置P2dに到達する時間t1を算出する。 In step S160, the control device 32 calculates a time t1 at which the crane 2 reaches the position P2d from the time t0 when the crane 2 starts the transfer operation on the outward path.
 そして、制御装置32は、制御に関する情報として時間t1をクレーン1が接触を回避しつつ往路の搬送作業を実施できるタイミングとして報知する。その後、制御装置32は、制御処理をステップS170に移行させる。 {Circle around (4)} Then, the control device 32 notifies the time t1 as information relating to control as a timing at which the crane 1 can carry out the forward transfer operation while avoiding contact. Thereafter, the control device 32 causes the control process to proceed to step S170.
 ステップS170において、制御装置32は、報知した制御に関する情報に対応する制御信号が、操縦者から入力されたか否か、もしくはクレーン2との接触が生じない方向にクレーン1を作動させる制御信号が、操縦者から入力されたか否か判定する。すなわち、制御装置32は、クレーン2と接触が生じる可能性がある制御信号が、操縦者から入力されたか否かを判定する。 In step S170, the control device 32 determines whether or not a control signal corresponding to the informed control-related information has been input from the operator, or a control signal for operating the crane 1 in a direction in which contact with the crane 2 does not occur. It is determined whether or not an input has been made by the pilot. That is, the control device 32 determines whether or not a control signal that may cause contact with the crane 2 is input from the operator.
 その結果、報知した制御に関する情報に基づいて制御信号が操縦者から入力された場合(ステップS170において“YES”)、もしくはクレーン2との接触が生じない方向にクレーン1を作動させる制御信号が操縦者から入力された場合、制御装置32は、制御処理をS180に移行させる。 As a result, when a control signal is input from the operator based on the notified information on the control ("YES" in step S170), or the control signal for operating the crane 1 in a direction in which contact with the crane 2 does not occur is performed. If an input is made by the user, the control device 32 shifts the control processing to S180.
 一方、報知した制御に関する情報に基づいて制御信号が操縦者から入力されていない場合(ステップS170において“NO”)、もしくはクレーン2との接触が生じる方向にクレーン1を作動させる制御信号が操縦者から入力された場合、制御装置32は、制御処理をS190に移行させる。 On the other hand, if the control signal has not been input from the operator based on the information on the notified control ("NO" in step S170), or the control signal for operating crane 1 in the direction in which contact with crane 2 is generated, If the control unit 32 receives the input, the control device 32 causes the control process to proceed to S190.
 ステップS180において、制御装置32は、入力された制御信号を各バルブに伝達する。そして、制御装置32は、制御処理をステップS110に移行させる。 In step S180, the control device 32 transmits the input control signal to each valve. Then, control device 32 shifts the control processing to step S110.
 ステップS190において、制御装置32は、入力された制御信号を取り消し、クレーン1を停止させる制御信号を各バルブに伝達する。そして、制御装置32は、接触監視制御を終了する。 In step S190, the control device 32 cancels the input control signal and transmits a control signal for stopping the crane 1 to each valve. Then, the control device 32 ends the contact monitoring control.
 このように、クレーン1は、機体が通過する第一通過領域A1とクレーン2の機体が通過する領域との最短距離Lmによってクレーン同士が接触する可能性を判定し、接触を回避するための各クレーンの作動タイミングを制御に関する情報として、クレーン1の操縦者に報知するように構成されている。 As described above, the crane 1 determines the possibility that the cranes will come into contact with each other based on the shortest distance Lm between the first passage area A1 through which the fuselage passes and the area through which the fuselage of the crane 2 passes. The operation timing of the crane is configured to be notified to the operator of the crane 1 as information relating to control.
 このように構成することで、クレーン1は、機体同士が接触する可能性がある作業可能範囲Wr1にクレーン2が配置されていても、制御に関する情報に基づいて制御されることでクレーン1とクレーン2との接触を回避しつつ、搬送作業の作業効率を維持することができる。 With this configuration, the crane 1 is controlled based on the control-related information even when the crane 2 is arranged in the workable range Wr1 in which the fuselage may come into contact with each other. 2, while maintaining the work efficiency of the transport operation.
 一方、クレーン1は、報知した制御に関する情報に基づいていない制御信号であり、かつ第二通過領域A2に近接する方向にクレーン1を作動させる制御信号が操縦者から入力された場合、つまり、接触する可能性がある制御信号が入力された場合、その制御信号をキャンセルしてブーム等を停止させる制御を実施する。 On the other hand, when the crane 1 is a control signal that is not based on the information on the notified control and a control signal for operating the crane 1 in the direction approaching the second passage area A2 is input from the operator, When a control signal that may cause the boom or the like is input, control is performed to cancel the control signal and stop the boom or the like.
 このように、クレーン1は、クレーン2と接触する可能性がある状況が発生した場合に搬送作業の制御を規制する。また、クレーン2が取得した制御に関する情報と異なる制御態様で作動している場合にその制御信号をキャンセルしてブーム等を停止させる制御を実施する構成でもよい。 ク レ ー ン Thus, the crane 1 regulates the control of the transfer operation when a situation that may come into contact with the crane 2 occurs. Further, when the crane 2 is operating in a control mode different from the information on the acquired control, a control for canceling the control signal and stopping the boom or the like may be performed.
 これにより、クレーン1は、作業可能範囲Wr1にクレーン2が配置されていてもクレーン2との接触を回避することができる。なお、本実施形態において、クレーン1は、クレーン2との接触監視制御を実施しているが、複数の移動式クレーンと接触監視制御を行う構成でもよい。また、接触を判定する最短距離Lmの設定方法は、本実施形態に限定するものではない。 Accordingly, the crane 1 can avoid contact with the crane 2 even if the crane 2 is arranged in the workable range Wr1. In the present embodiment, the crane 1 performs the contact monitoring control with the crane 2, but may be configured to perform the contact monitoring control with a plurality of mobile cranes. The method for setting the shortest distance Lm for determining contact is not limited to the present embodiment.

 以下に、図3と図4とを用いて、接触監視システム33による作業領域Waにおけるクレーン1とクレーン2との接触監視制御について説明する。作業領域Wa内には、クレーン1とクレーン2とが配置されているものとする。 Hereinafter, the contact monitoring control between the crane 1 and the crane 2 in the work area Wa by the contact monitoring system 33 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. It is assumed that the crane 1 and the crane 2 are arranged in the work area Wa.
 クレーン1は、吊り上げ位置P1aから吊り下げ位置P1bまでの第一搬送経路R1で荷物Wを搬送する計画である。クレーン2は、吊り上げ位置P2aから吊り下げ位置P2bまでの第二搬送経路R2で荷物Wを搬送する計画である。 The crane 1 plans to transport the load W on the first transport route R1 from the lifting position P1a to the hanging position P1b. The crane 2 plans to transport the load W on the second transport route R2 from the lifting position P2a to the hanging position P2b.
 図3に示すように、システム制御装置34は、第一搬送経路R1において、経路上の各位置における最短距離Lm(n)が接触基準値Ls未満の接触区間の両端位置である位置P1cと位置P1d、および第二搬送経路R2において、経路上の各位置における最短距離Lm(n)が接触基準値Ls未満の接触区間の両端位置である位置P2cと位置P2dを算出する。 As illustrated in FIG. 3, the system control device 34 determines that the shortest distance Lm (n) at each position on the route on the first transport route R1 is a position P1c that is both ends of a contact section that is less than the contact reference value Ls. In P1d and the second transport route R2, the positions P2c and P2d, which are both end positions of the contact section in which the shortest distance Lm (n) at each position on the route is less than the contact reference value Ls, are calculated.
 システム制御装置34は、クレーン2から取得した各種情報から、クレーン2が往路において搬送作業を開始する時間t0から接触区間の終了位置である位置P2dに到達する時間t1を算出する。 The system controller 34 calculates a time t1 from the time t0 at which the crane 2 starts the transfer operation on the outward path to the position P2d, which is the end position of the contact section, from various types of information acquired from the crane 2.
 また、システム制御装置34は、クレーン1から取得した各種情報から、クレーン1が往路において搬送作業を開始する時間t1から接触区間の終了位置である位置P1dに到達する時間t2を算出する。 {Circle around (4)} From the various information obtained from the crane 1, the system controller 34 calculates a time t2 from the time t1 at which the crane 1 starts the transfer operation on the outward path to the position P1d which is the end position of the contact section.
 システム制御装置34は、制御に関する情報として、時間t1をクレーン1が接触を回避しつつ往路の搬送作業を実施できるタイミングとしてクレーン1の制御装置32に送信する。また、システム制御装置34は、時間t2をクレーン2が接触を回避しつつ復路の搬送作業を実施できるタイミングとしてクレーン2の制御装置32に送信する。 The system control device 34 transmits the time t1 to the control device 32 of the crane 1 as information relating to the control, as a timing at which the crane 1 can perform a forward transfer operation while avoiding contact. Further, the system control device 34 transmits the time t2 to the control device 32 of the crane 2 as a timing at which the crane 2 can carry out the return work while avoiding contact.
 同様に、システム制御装置34は、制御に関する情報として、時間t3をクレーン1が接触を回避しつつ復路の搬送作業を実施できるタイミングとしてクレーン1の制御装置32に送信する。また、システム制御装置34は、時間t4をクレーン2が接触を回避しつつ次の往路の搬送作業を実施できるタイミングとしてクレーン2の制御装置32に送信する。 Similarly, the system control device 34 transmits the time t3 to the control device 32 of the crane 1 as control-related information at a timing at which the crane 1 can perform the return work while avoiding contact. Further, the system control device 34 transmits the time t4 to the control device 32 of the crane 2 as timing at which the crane 2 can carry out the next forward transfer operation while avoiding contact.
 システム制御装置34は、報知した制御に関する情報に基づいていない制御信号であり、かつ第二通過領域A2に近接する方向にクレーン1を作動させる制御信号または第一通過領域A1に近接する方向にクレーン2を作動させる制御信号が操縦者から入力された場合、予め定められた所定の制御を実施する。 The system control device 34 is a control signal that is not based on the information about the notified control and is a control signal for operating the crane 1 in a direction approaching the second passage area A2 or a crane signal in a direction approaching the first passage area A1. When a control signal for activating the second control is input from the operator, a predetermined control is performed.
 具体的には、システム制御装置34は、所定の制御として、入力された制御信号をキャンセルし、クレーン1とクレーン2とを停止させる制御信号をクレーン1の制御装置32とクレーン2の制御装置32に送信する。つまり、システム制御装置34は、クレーン1とクレーン2とが接触する可能性がある状況が発生した場合にクレーン1とクレーン2との制御を規制する。 Specifically, the system control device 34 cancels the input control signal and sends a control signal for stopping the crane 1 and the crane 2 to the control device 32 of the crane 1 and the control device 32 of the crane 2 as predetermined control. Send to That is, the system control device 34 regulates the control of the crane 1 and the crane 2 when a situation occurs in which the crane 1 and the crane 2 may come into contact with each other.
 このように、接触監視システム33は、クレーン1の機体とクレーン2の機体とが最短距離Lm以上の距離を保つための制御に関する情報をクレーン1の制御装置32とクレーン2の制御装置32とにシステム側通信機35を介して送信する。 As described above, the contact monitoring system 33 sends the information on the control for keeping the body of the crane 1 and the body of the crane 2 at the minimum distance Lm or more to the control device 32 of the crane 1 and the control device 32 of the crane 2. The data is transmitted via the system-side communication device 35.
 このように構成することで、接触監視システム33は、クレーン1の作業可能範囲Wr1とクレーン2の作業可能範囲Wr2とが重複しており、クレーン1とクレーン2とが接触する可能性がある状態で配置されていても、システム制御装置34が各クレーンの各種情報を一括して管理し、各クレーン同士の接触判定を同時に行うことでクレーン1とクレーン2との接触を回避しつつ、搬送作業の作業効率を維持することができる。 With such a configuration, the contact monitoring system 33 is in a state where the workable range Wr1 of the crane 1 and the workable range Wr2 of the crane 2 overlap, and the crane 1 and the crane 2 may be in contact with each other. The system control device 34 collectively manages various types of information of the cranes, and simultaneously determines the contact between the cranes, thereby avoiding contact between the cranes 1 and the cranes 2 and performing the transfer operation. Work efficiency can be maintained.
 また接触監視システム33は、作業領域に配置されている複数の移動式クレーンだけでなく、高所作業車およびブルドーザ等の他の作業車両との接触監視を行うように構成されていてもよい。さらに、接触監視システム33は、搬送作業の作業内容を記録するように構成されていてもよい。 The contact monitoring system 33 may be configured to monitor contact with not only a plurality of mobile cranes arranged in the work area but also other work vehicles such as an aerial work vehicle and a bulldozer.
