Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Bewegungstilgung bei selbstfahrenden ungefederten Baumaschinen, insbesondere bei Radladern, mit einem mittels eines Hydraulikzylinders angetriebenen Arbeitsgerät.The invention relates to a method and a device for Bewegungsstilgung in self-propelled unsprung construction equipment, especially in wheel loaders, with a driven by a hydraulic cylinder implement.

Viele Typen von selbstfahrenden Baumaschinen weisen gattungsmäßig kein Dämpfungs- oder Federungssystem auf. Das liegt zum einen daran, dass für die Beladevorgänge eine Federung wegen ihres Nachgebens unter den Hub- und Reibkräften nachteilig ist, und zum anderen stellt das Vorhalten eines Federungssystems einen hohen konstruktiven Aufwand dar, der mit nicht unerheblichen Investitions- und wartungskosten verbunden ist. Dem guten Fahrverhalten, wie z.B. Agilität und Handhabung, dieser ungefederten Baumaschinen steht jedoch mangelnder Fahrkomfort, insbesondere beim Arbeits-, Transport- und Überführungszyklus, gegenüber.Many types of self-propelled construction machines are generic in terms of damping or suspension system. This is due to the fact that for the loading suspension is disadvantageous because of their yielding under the lifting and friction forces, and on the other hand, the provision of a suspension system is a high design effort, which is associated with significant investment and maintenance costs. The good driving behavior, such as However, agility and handling of these unsprung construction machines is offset by a lack of ride comfort, especially in the work, transportation and transfer cycle.

Die Wirtschaftlichkeit derartiger Baumaschinen wird jedoch maßgeblich durch den Faktor Zeit bestimmt. Selbstfahrende Baumaschinen werden oftmals kurzfristig zwischen verschiedenen Baustellen umgesetzt, wobei die notwendige Zeit zum überführen der Baumaschine, also der Überführungszyklus, eine entscheidende Rolle spielt.However, the profitability of such construction machinery is largely determined by the time factor. Self-propelled construction machines are often implemented at short notice between different construction sites, with the necessary time for transferring the construction machine, ie the transfer cycle, plays a crucial role.

Eine Erhöhung der Fahrgeschwindigkeit zur Verringerung der Überführungszeiten ist bei ungefederten Baumaschinen jedoch eng mit den Anforderungen an den Fahrkomfort und die Fahrsicherheit.sowie an die aus Sicht der Arbeitsmedizin zulässigen Belastungen für den Bediener geknüpft. Beim Überschreiten einer bestimmten Fahrgeschwindigkeit werden hohe unerwünschte Impulse und Schwingungen, die in die Fahrerkabine eingeleitet werden, verzeichnet.An increase in driving speed for reduction However, the transfer times for unsprung construction machines is closely linked to the requirements for ride comfort and driving safety and to the loads that are permissible for the operator from the point of view of occupational medicine. When exceeding a certain driving speed high unwanted pulses and vibrations that are introduced into the cab, recorded.

In den letzten Jahren wurde deshalb unter Verwendung von passiven Schwingungs-Tilgungs-Systemen, beispielweise in Radladern, versucht, einen Kompromiss zwischen dem Fahrverhalten und dem Fahrkomfort selbstfahrender ungefederter Baumaschinen zu finden. Aktive Schwingungs-Tilgungs-Systeme hingegen haben auf Grund ihrer Komplexität und der damit verbundenen Probleme bei der konstruktiven Umsetzung bislang keine praktische Bedeutung.Therefore, in recent years, using passive vibration-damping systems, for example in wheel loaders, attempts have been made to find a compromise between driveability and ride comfort of self-propelled unsprung construction machinery. By contrast, active vibration cancellation systems have hitherto had no practical significance due to their complexity and the associated problems with the design implementation.

Bekannt aus der DE 42 21 943 C2 ist eine als passives Schwingungs-Tilgungs-System ausgebildete Hydraulikanlage für eine mit Arbeitsgeräten versehene verfahrbare Arbeitsmaschine. Hierbei wird vorgesehen, dass ein Hydrospeicher als Lastfederungssystem eingesetzt wird, wobei die für das Heben und Senken des Arbeitsgerätes zuständigen Hydraulikleitungen zwischen dem Hubzylinder und einem Steuerventil angeschlossen sind. Es ist offenbart, dass zur variablen Angleichung des Lastdrucks des Hydrospeichers an den jeweiligen Lastdruck des Hubzylinders mindestens eine Düse in Verbindung mit mehreren Wegeventilen zwischen dem Lastfederungssystem vorgesehen sind, wobei die Ventile in Vorsteuerleitungen zwischen einem vorsteuergeber und dem Steuerventil über vorgesehene Druckschalter betätigt werden. Prinzipiell wird bei diesem passiven Schwingungs-Tilgungs-System die Nachgiebigkeit des Hydrospeichers genutzt, um eine gegenphasige Bewegung der Ausrüstung zuzulassen, die ihrerseits die Bewegung ; einer Schaufel gegenüber der Baumaschine tilgt.Known from the DE 42 21 943 C2 is designed as a passive vibration eradication system hydraulic system for working equipment provided with a movable work machine. It is provided that a hydraulic accumulator is used as a load suspension system, wherein the responsible for raising and lowering the implement hydraulic lines between the lifting cylinder and a control valve are connected. It is disclosed that for variable adjustment of the load pressure of the hydraulic accumulator at least one nozzle in conjunction with a plurality of directional control valves between the load suspension system are provided at the respective load pressure of the lifting cylinder, wherein the valves are actuated in pilot control lines between a pilot control and the control valve via provided pressure switch. In principle, in this passive vibration-damping system, the compliance of the hydraulic accumulator is used to allow an out-of-phase movement of the equipment, which in turn the movement; a shovel over the construction machine erases.

Der Nachteil dieser Lösung besteht darin, dass neben dem. Hydrospeicher auch Wegeventile, Druckschalter und Düsen zusätzlich in der Baumaschine vorgesehen werden müssen, was zwangsläufig zu höheren Kosten führt.The disadvantage of this solution is that in addition to the. Hydrospeicher also directional valves, pressure switches and nozzles must be additionally provided in the construction machine, which inevitably leads to higher costs.

Weiterhin sind aus dem Stand der Technik sogenannte Suspensions-Systeme bekannt, die im Landtechnikbereich vor allem bei Traktoren eingesetzt werden.Furthermore, so-called suspension systems are known from the prior art, which are used in the agricultural technology sector, especially in tractors.

Hierbei handelt es sich um Kombinationen von parallel geschalteten Federn und hydraulischen Dämpfern. Die Dämpfungscharakteristik ist dabei bei passiven Systemen (feste Düsen) fix und bei aktiven Systemen mittels einer Elektronik modifizierbar.These are combinations of parallel springs and hydraulic dampers. The damping characteristic is fixed in passive systems (fixed nozzles) and modifiable in the case of active systems by means of electronics.

Der grundlegende Unterschied zwischen dem zuvor beschriebenen passiven Schwingungs-Tilgungs-System und einem Suspension-System liegt in der mechanischen Struktur der sich bewegenden Massen, wobei das Suspension-System selbst ein Feder-Dämpfer-Element ist, welches zwischen der Masse des Fahrzeugs und den Einzelmassen der Räder und Achsen angeordnet ist, um unerwünschte Schwingungsbewegungen dissipativ zu vernichten. Aus der US. 5,897, 287 , A. ist ferner eine Erfindung zur Bewegungstilgung von Baumaschinen beschrieben, die auf der Basis eines elektrohydraulischen Systems zur Steuerung der Hubzylinder arbeitet. Die Aufgabe dieser Erfindung besteht darin, einen konstanten Druck in den Hubzylindern sicherzustellen. Mittels eines Drucksensors wird unter Berücksichtigung und Lage der Schaufel permanent der Druck in den Hubzylindern überwacht und konstant gehalten, um ein ungewolltes Absinken der Schaufel zu verhindern.The fundamental difference between the passive vibration-damping system described above and a suspension system lies in the mechanical structure of the moving masses, the suspension system itself being a spring-damper element interposed between the mass of the vehicle and the vehicle Single masses of the wheels and axles is arranged to dissipatively destroy unwanted oscillatory movements. From the US. 5,897, 287 A further describes an invention for the immobilization of construction machinery which operates on the basis of an electro-hydraulic system for controlling the lifting cylinders. The object of this invention is to ensure a constant pressure in the lifting cylinders. By means of a pressure sensor, taking into account and position of the blade, the pressure in the lifting cylinders is constantly monitored and kept constant in order to prevent an unwanted sinking of the blade.

Nachteilig an dieser Lösung sind insbesondere die hochdynamischen Ventile, die für die geforderte Druckregelung, jedoch nicht für die Bewegungstilgung bei Radladern, notwendig sind. Die durch das Nicken der beladenen Schaufel erzeugten Anregungen/Impulse bzw. Nickschwingungen können damit erfahrungsgemäß gut kompensiert werden; für die Kabinenschwingungen ist diese Lösung jedoch ungeeignet. Zusammenfassend muss festgestellt werden, dass die aus dem Stand der Technik vorbekannten passiven Bewegungs- oder Schwingungs-Tilgungs-Systeme nicht oder nur begrenzt für wechselnde Betriebsbedingungen optimiert sind, und wenn man die Vibrationstilgung der Kabine berücksichtigt, nur für ganz spezifische Aufgaben ausgelegt sind. Eine. Übertragung der in der Landtechnik eingesetzten Suspension-Systeme auf ungefederte Baumaschinen ist aus Gründen einer festen Ankopplung der Vorderachse mit dem Vorderrahmen nicht möglich. Mit dem Einsatz des aus der US 5,897,287 A vorbekannten aktiven Schwingungs-Tilgungs-Systems entstehen zudem sehr hohe Kosten durch einen ungerechtfertigten Aufwand an hochdynamischen Druckregelventilen.Disadvantages of this solution are, in particular, the highly dynamic valves which are necessary for the required pressure regulation, but not for the displacement of wheel loaders. The excitations / pulses or pitching vibrations generated by the pitch of the loaded blade can thus be well compensated according to experience; for the cabin vibrations, however, this solution is unsuitable. In summary, it has to be stated that the prior art passive motion or vibration / erosion systems are not or only to a limited extent optimized for changing operating conditions and, taking into account the vibration damping of the cabin, are designed for very specific tasks. A. Transmission of the suspension systems used in agricultural technology to unsprung construction machines is not possible for reasons of a fixed coupling of the front axle with the front frame. With the use of out of the US 5,897,287 A In addition, the previously known active oscillation-eradication system results in very high costs due to an unjustified expenditure of highly dynamic pressure control valves.

Das Arbeitsgerät wird mittels eines Hydraulikzylinders angetrieben. Weiterhin weist die Baumaschine eine Hydraulikquelle, ein gesteuertes Ventil zur Versorgung des Hydraulikzylinders mit Hydraulikfluid sowie eine Regelungseinheit mit einer Steuersoftware auf. Am Auslegerzylinder sind zwei Drucksensoren vorgesehen, deren Messsignale mittels der Steuersoftware als Eingangssignale verarbeitet und in ein Beschleunigungssignal umgewandelt werden, woraus ein Steuerstrom für das Ventil als Ausgangsgröße für eine kompensierende Bewegung des Hydraulikzylinders bestimmt wird. Diese Vorrichtung wird wirksam bei der Betätigung des Arbeitsgerätes durch den Fahrer, d.h. die Steuersignale des Fahrers werden zur Bewegungstilgung automatisch übersteuert, sofern ungewünschte Bewegungen auftreten. Eine Bewegungstilgung während der Fahrt, unabhängig von der Betätigung des Arbeitsgerätes durch den Fahren, ist in dieser Druckschrift nicht offenbartOut US 5,832,730 is a device for Bewegungsstilgung in self-propelled, unsprung construction equipment (eg backhoe) known.

In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung können auch die von einem Drucksensor erfassten Drucksignale im Hydraulikzylinder zur Ermittlung des Füllungsgrades und/ oder die von einem Winkelsensor erfasste Lage des Hubgerüstes zusätzlich zu der Eingangsgröße (A) als weitere Eingangsgrößen der Regelungseinheit zugeführt werden.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the pressure signals detected by a pressure sensor in the hydraulic cylinder for determining the degree of filling and / or detected by an angle sensor position of the mast can be supplied in addition to the input variable (A) as further input variables of the control unit.

Die Drucksignale im Hydraulikzylinder indizieren den Füllungsgrad bzw. die Schaufellast, um in einem adaptiven Regelalgorithmus lastabhängige Regelparameter bestimmen zu können. Da der Regelalgorithmus adaptiv, also selbsteinstellend, ausgebildet ist, kann eine optimierte Dämpfung für unterschiedliche Betriebspunkte hinsichtlich der Schaufellast erzielt werden.The pressure signals in the hydraulic cylinder indicate the degree of filling or the blade load in order to be able to determine load-dependent control parameters in an adaptive control algorithm. Since the control algorithm is adaptive, that is to say self-adjusting, an optimized damping for different operating points with respect to the load on the blades can be achieved.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist die Tatsache, dass die Baumaschine mit zwei verschiedenen Dämpfungsmodi, nämlich Kabinenmodus und Schaufelmodus, betrieben werden kann. Der Kabinenmodus wird vorzugsweise dann aktiviert, um bei Überführungsfahrten eine höhere Fahrgeschwindigkeit zu erzielen. Die Umschaltung in den Schaufelmodus wird dann vollzogen, wenn die an der Hubausrüstung platzierte Schaufel gedämpft wird, womit im Arbeitseinsatz der Baumaschine eine bessere Handhabung erreicht werden kann. Der Vollständigkeit halber sei erwähnt, dass selbstverständlich auch eine Kombination aus beiden Dämpfungsmodi möglich ist. Die Auswahl des Modus kann manuell durch den Fahrer der Maschine oder in besonders vorteilhafter Weise automatisch erfolgen, indem das Signal des Drucksensors ausgewertet wird, um mit gefüllter Schaufel den Schaufelmodus und mit leerer Schaufel den Kabinenmodus zu aktivieren.Particularly advantageous is the fact that the construction machine with two different damping modes, namely cabin mode and bucket mode, can be operated. The cabin mode is then preferably activated in order to achieve a higher driving speed during transfer journeys. Switching to the bucket mode is accomplished when the bucket placed on the lift equipment is damped, thus allowing better handling in the labor input of the construction machine. For completeness, it should be mentioned that, of course, a combination of both damping modes is possible. The mode selection can be done manually by the operator of the machine, or most advantageously automatically, by evaluating the signal from the pressure sensor to activate the bucket mode with the bucket full and the cabin mode with the bucket empty.

Die Umschaltung zwischen den einzelnen Dämpfungsmodi ist vom Bediener der Baumaschine nicht nur im Stand, sondern auch während der Fahrt vollziehbar, wobei zwischen einem Betriebspunkt eines Druckniveaus und/oder der Fahrgeschwindigkeit unterschieden werden kann. Bevorzugt erfolgt die Umschaltung zwischen den einzelnen Dämpfungsmodi unter Verwendung des im Hydraulikzylinders angeordneten Drucksensors.The switching between the individual damping modes can be performed by the operator of the construction machine not only when stationary but also while driving, it being possible to distinguish between an operating point of a pressure level and / or the driving speed. The switching between the individual damping modes preferably takes place using the pressure sensor arranged in the hydraulic cylinder.

  • * Ermittlung des Füllungsgrades der Schaufel mittels eines optionalen Drucksensors.

Es ist vorgesehen, dass die Vorrichtung zur Bewegungstilgung bei selbstfahrenden ungefederten Baumaschinen, insbesondere bei Radladern, mit einem mittels eines Hydraulikzylinders angetriebenen Arbeitsgerät eine Hydraulikquelle, ein gesteuertes Ventil zur Versorgung des Hydraulikzylinders mit Hydraulikfluid, mindestens einen Sensor zur Erfassung einer physikalischen Messgröße und eine Regelungseinheit mit einer Steuersoftware aufweist, wobei als Sensor ein Beschleunigungssensor vorgesehen ist und die Regelungseinheit derart ausgebildet ist, um die Signale des Beschleunigungssensors mittels der Steuersoftware als Eingangssignale zu verarbeiten und einen Steuerstrom für das Ventil als Ausgangsgröße für eine kompensierende Bewegung des Hydraulikzylinders zu bestimmen.It is envisaged that the device for Bewegungsstilgung in self-propelled unsprung construction equipment, in particular wheel loaders, with a driven by a hydraulic cylinder implement a hydraulic source, a controlled valve for supplying the hydraulic cylinder with hydraulic fluid, at least one sensor for detecting a physical quantity and a control unit a control software, wherein as sensor, an acceleration sensor is provided and the control unit is designed so as to process the signals of the acceleration sensor by means of the control software as input signals and to determine a control current for the valve as an output variable for a compensating movement of the hydraulic cylinder.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung weist gegenüber dem Stand der Technik den Unterschied auf, dass keine Druckregelung, sondern eine Geschwindigkeitssteuerung des Hydraulikzylinders auf der Basis einer Beschleunigungsrückführung realisiert wird. Damit werden keine hochdynamischen Ventile benötigt, sondern es kann in vorteilhafter Weise das Ventil für den Arbeitskreis des Steuerblocks genutzt werden.The device according to the invention has the difference compared to the prior art that no pressure control, but a speed control of the hydraulic cylinder is realized on the basis of an acceleration feedback. Thus, no highly dynamic valves are needed, but it can be used in an advantageous manner, the valve for the working group of the control block.

Für den Fall, dass die Baumaschine mit einem elektrohydraulischen System ausgestattet ist, d.h. wenn der Hauptsteuerblock für die Steuerung der Arbeitsfunktionen von einem Controller mit elektrischen Signalen angesteuert wird, sind keine weiteren zusätzlichen Hydraulikkomponenten oder spezielle Elektronikkomponenten zur Lösung der angestrebten Aufgabe notwendig.In the event that the construction machine is equipped with an electrohydraulic system, i. if the main control block for the control of the working functions is controlled by a controller with electrical signals, no further additional hydraulic components or special electronic components are necessary to achieve the desired object.

Mittels dem Beschleunigungssensor können die unmittelbar auf die Schaufel und/oder die Kabine der Baumaschine wirkenden Beschleunigungen erfasst werden, um eine gegenphasige Bewegung des Hydraulikzylinders zu veranlassen. Das von dem Beschleunigungssensor erfasste Signal wird der Regeleinheit zugeführt, dort gegebenenfalls mit einem Drucksignal und einem wegkompensierenden Signal gewichtet und in ein entsprechendes Signal, welches den Stromwert für das den Hydraulikzylinder steuernde Ventil bestimmt, gewandelt. Das angesteuerte Ventil gibt dabei einen Ventilquerschnitt frei, so dass ein entsprechender Volumenstrom zu dem Hydraulikzylinder fließen kann.By means of the acceleration sensor can directly detected on the bucket and / or the cab of the construction machine accelerations are detected to cause an antiphase movement of the hydraulic cylinder. The signal detected by the acceleration sensor is fed to the control unit where it is optionally weighted with a pressure signal and a path compensating signal and converted into a corresponding signal which determines the current value for the valve controlling the hydraulic cylinder. The controlled valve releases a valve cross section, so that a corresponding volume flow can flow to the hydraulic cylinder.

Die Anordnung des Beschleunigungssensors kann an einer beliebigen Stelle der Baumaschine erfolgen, bevorzugt jedoch im Bereich der zu dämpfenden Funktion oder Maschinenbaugruppe, respektive Schaufel oder Fahrerkabine, der Baumaschine.The arrangement of the acceleration sensor can take place at any point of the construction machine, but preferably in the region of the function or machine assembly to be damped, or the blade or driver's cab, of the construction machine.

Jede äußere Anregung der Baumaschine ist mit einer unerwünschten Kraft- und damit Bewegungswirkung auf die Maschinenstruktur verbunden. Das erfindungsgemäße Bewegungs-Tilgungs-System erzeugt zur Kompensation der Kraft- bzw. Bewegungseinwirkung mittels des Hydraulikfluids eine Gegenkraft in den Hydraulikzylindern der Arbeitsausrüstung, besonders vorteilhaft in den Hubzylindern. In einer besonders vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung wird das Drucksignal durch einen Drucksensor erfasst, der vorzugsweise im Bereich des Hydraulikzylinderbodens der Hubzylinder angeordnet ist. Dieses Drucksignal repräsentiert den Füllungsgrad der Schaufel der Ausrüstung. Da der Füllungsgrad ständig variieren kann, ist vorgesehen, dass die Regelungseinheit adaptiv ausgebildet ist. Somit kann lastadaptiv eine optimale Schwingungskompensation erzielt werden. Der Drucksensor ist folglich in der Lage, eine leere von einer gefüllten Schaufel zu unterscheiden und das entsprechende Signal der Regelungseinheit zuzuführen.Each external excitation of the construction machine is associated with an undesirable force and thus movement effect on the machine structure. The movement-eradication system according to the invention generates a counter force in the hydraulic cylinders of the working equipment, particularly advantageously in the lifting cylinders, in order to compensate for the force or movement action by means of the hydraulic fluid. In a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention the pressure signal is detected by a pressure sensor, which is preferably arranged in the region of the hydraulic cylinder bottom of the lifting cylinder. This pressure signal represents the degree of filling of the blade of the equipment. Since the degree of filling can vary continuously, it is provided that the control unit is adaptive. Thus, load-adaptive optimal vibration compensation can be achieved. The pressure sensor is therefore able to distinguish an empty from a filled blade and to supply the corresponding signal to the control unit.

Der Drucksensor kann zusätzlich durch einen Winkelsensor oder einen anderen Positionssensor (z.B. Hubsensor für Hubzylinder) ergänzt werden. Der Winkelsensor erfasst die Lage des Hubgerüstes und vergleicht sie mit einem zuvor gespeicherten Referenzwert. Die Abweichung der Winkelposition von der Referenzposition wird durch einen Regler verarbeitet. In der Regeleinheit kann in vorteilhafter Weise ein zulässiger Bereich für die Position des Hubgerüstes definiert werden, dessen Einhaltung während der Tilgungsbewegung eine der Steuerungs- bzw. Regelaufgaben der Regeleinrichtung ist. Die momentane Position ist durch einen am Hubgerüst angeordneten Winkelsensor messbar.The pressure sensor can additionally be supplemented by an angle sensor or another position sensor (eg stroke sensor for lifting cylinder). The angle sensor detects the position of the mast and compares it with a previously stored reference value. The deviation of the angular position from the reference position is processed by a controller. In the control unit can be defined in an advantageous manner an allowable range for the position of the mast, the compliance during the repayment movement is one of the control or regulating tasks of the control device. The current position can be measured by an angle sensor arranged on the mast.

Die in der Baumaschine für die Steuerung der Arbeitsfunktionen vorhandene Regelungseinheit wird erfindungsgemäß um eine Steuersoftware ergänzt, deren Algorithmus mehrere Dämpfungsfunktionen beinhalten kann. Während bei Bewegungs-Tilgungs-Systemen im Stand der Technik bislang nur die unerwünschten Beschleunigungen der Schaufel kompensiert werden konnten, können nunmehr über die Auswahl eines gewünschten Dämpfungsmodus die zugehörige Dämpfungsfunktion aktiviert werden. Typische Dämpfungsfunktionen für den Schaufelmodus, den Kabinenmodus aber auch für den kombinierten Modus sind dabei in der Steuersoftware vorgesehen. In Abhängigkeit des gewählten Dämpfungsmodus wird gemäß der zugehörigen Dämpfungsfunktion ein entsprechender Steuerstrom für das Ventil freigegeben.The control unit present in the construction machine for the control of the work functions is supplemented according to the invention by a control software whose algorithm can include a plurality of damping functions. While in motion cancellation systems in the prior art so far only the unwanted accelerations of the blade could be compensated, now the selection of a desired damping mode, the associated damping function can be activated. Typical damping functions for the bucket mode, the cabin mode but also for the combined mode are provided in the control software. Depending on the selected damping mode, a corresponding control current for the valve is released according to the associated damping function.

Fig. 1 illustriert schematisch die äußeren Anregungen/Impulse 4, die typischerweise auf eine Baumaschine 1 wirken. Die Kabine 1.1 des hier dargestellten Radladers wird durch die Fahrbahnanregung 4.1 und die Anregung 4.2 durch die Ausrüstungsbewegung vertikal beschleunigt 5. Einerseits werden die durch die Unebenheiten der Fahrbahn 3 erzeugten Anregungen/Impulse 4 bzw. Hubschwingungen während des Fahrens durch die Reifen 1.3 auf die Kabine 1.1 übertragen und andererseits die durch das Nicken der beladenen Schaufel 1.2.2 erzeugten Anregungen/Impulse 4.2 bzw. Nickschwingungen durch die nicht dargestellten Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 in die Kabine 1.1 eingeleitet. Die Fahrzeug- bzw. Kabinendämpfung erfolgt ohne Dämpfungssystem ausschließlich durch die Reifen 1.3 der Baumaschine 1. Während des Arbeits- oder Überführungszyklus der Baumaschine 1 können sich Anregungen/Impulse durch die Fahrbahn 4.1 bzw. durch die Ausrüstung 4.2 gegebenenfalls überlagern, was zu einer erhöhten und damit unerwünschten Kabinenbeschleunigung führt. Fig. 1 schematically illustrates the external excitations / pulses 4, which typically act on a construction machine 1. The cabin 1.1 of the wheel loader shown here is vertically accelerated by the Fahrbahnanregung 4.1 and the excitation 4.2 by the equipment movement 5. On the one hand, the generated by the unevenness of the lane 3 suggestions / pulses 4 or Hubschwingungen while driving through the tires 1.3 to the cabin 1.1 transmitted and on the other hand, the initiated by the pitch of the loaded blade 1.2.2 suggestions / pulses 4.2 or Nick vibrations introduced by the hydraulic cylinder 1.4, not shown in the cabin 1.1. The vehicle or cabin damping takes place without damping system exclusively by the tires 1.3 of the construction machine 1. During the working or transfer cycle of the construction machine 1, suggestions / pulses may overlap by the roadway 4.1 or by the equipment 4.2, which leads to an increased and thus causing unwanted cabin acceleration.

Fig. 2 zeigt die Steuerungsarchitektur der Vorrichtung zur Bewegungstilgung bei Baumaschinen 1 in einem geschlossenen Regelkreis. Dieses Ausführungsbeispiel illustriert unter der Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Beschleunigungssensors 2.1, des Winkelsensors 2.2 und des Drucksensors 2.3 die Ansteuerung des Hydraulikzylinders 1.4 bei einer Anregung der Baumaschine 1 durch die in der Fig. 1 dargestellte Ausrüstung 1.2 und durch die Fahrbahn 3. Fig. 2 shows the control architecture of the device for motion reduction in construction machines 1 in a closed loop. This embodiment illustrates the use of the acceleration sensor 2.1 according to the invention, the angle sensor 2.2 and the pressure sensor 2.3, the control of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 at a stimulation of the construction machine 1 by in the Fig. 1 illustrated equipment 1.2 and by the roadway 3.

Die in der Fig. 1 dargestellte Baumaschine 1 weist werkseitig ein Ventil 1.5 des nicht dargestellten Steuerblocks, eine Regelungseinheit 6, die Winkelsensoren 2.2, den optional eingesetzten Drucksensor 2.3 und einen Beschleunigungssensor 2.1 auf.The in the Fig. 1 shown construction machine 1 has a valve factory 1.5 of the control block, not shown, a control unit 6, the angle sensors 2.2, the optionally used pressure sensor 2.3 and an acceleration sensor 2.1.

Die Anregungen 4.1 der Baumaschine 1 durch die Fahrbahn 3 werden über die Räder/Reifen 1.3 der Baumaschine 1 ebenso wie über die Anregungen 4.2 der Ausrüstung 1.2 auf die Kabine 1.1 der Baumaschine 1 übertragen. Diese sich überlagernden Anregungen 4 werden von einem Beschleunigungssensor 2.1 erfasst und der Regeleinheit 6 als elektrisches Signal zugeführt. Dieses elektrische Signal bildet die erste Eingangsgröße für die Regeleinheit 6. Als eine weitere Eingangsgröße wird die Lage 10 des Hubgerüstes 1.2.1 der Regelungseinheit 6 zugeführt. Die Überwachung der Lage 10 des Hubgerüstes 1.2.1 erfolgt mittels der werkseitig an der Baumaschine 1 vorhandenen Winkelsensoren 2.2, um zu große Hydraulikzylinderhübe und eine driftende Ausrüstungsstellung zu vermeiden. Des Weiteren erfolgt im hier dargestellten Beispiel die Messung des Drucks 8 im Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 mittels eines Drucksensors 2.3. Mit diesem optional einsetzbaren Drucksensor 2.3 kann der Füllungsgrad der Schaufel 1.2.2 ermittelt werden. Die sich in der Schaufel 1.2.2 befindlichen massebehafteten Güter üben auf den Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 eine Druckkraft aus, die von dem Drucksensor 2.3 erfasst wird. Die zuvor beschriebenen Eingangssignale der Sensoren 2 bzw. Messwertumwandler werden gemäß einem in der Fig. 3 dargestellten Algorithmus zur Erzeugung eines Ausgangssignals verarbeitet. Das Ausgangssignal ist ein elektrisches Signal und liefert den Stromwert für ein Ventil 1.5 eines nicht dargestellten Steuerblocks. Das Ventil 1.5 gibt in Abhängigkeit des Stromwertes einen Ventilquerschnitt frei, wobei der Stromwert proportional zum freigegebenen Volumenstrom 7 ist. Mit dem Einlassen bzw. Auslassen von Hydraulikfluid wird der Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 bewegt. Die Geschwindigkeit der Hubbewegung ist dabei proportional dem freigegebenen Volumenstrom 7. Die Hubbewegung des Hydraulikzylinders 1.4 entspricht dabei einer kompensierenden Bewegung gegenüber der Fahrbahnanregung 4.1 und Ausrüstungsanregung 4.2. Der sich dabei im Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 einstellende Druck 8 wird erneut mittels des Drucksensors 2.3 erfasst und der Regelungseinheit 6 zugeführt. Die nicht von der Regelungseinheit 6 der Baumaschine 1 getilgten äußeren Anregungen 4 werden von dem Beschleunigungssensor 2.1 als Beschleunigung 5 erfasst und der Regelungseinheit 6 erneut zugeführt. Damit ist der Regelkreis geschlossen.The suggestions 4.1 of the construction machine 1 through the roadway 3 are transmitted to the car 1.1 of the construction machine 1 via the wheels / tires 1.3 of the construction machine 1 as well as via the suggestions 4.2 of the equipment 1.2. These superimposed excitations 4 are detected by an acceleration sensor 2.1 and fed to the control unit 6 as an electrical signal. This electrical signal forms the first input variable for the control unit 6. As a further input variable, the layer 10 of the mast 1.2.1 of the control unit 6 is supplied. The supervision the position 10 of the mast 1.2.1 takes place by means of the factory existing on the construction machine 1 angle sensors 2.2 in order to avoid excessive hydraulic cylinder strokes and a drifting equipment position. Furthermore, in the example shown here, the measurement of the pressure 8 in the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 takes place by means of a pressure sensor 2.3. With this optionally usable pressure sensor 2.3, the degree of filling of the bucket 1.2.2 can be determined. The mass-laden goods located in the blade 1.2.2 exert on the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 a compressive force which is detected by the pressure sensor 2.3. The above-described input signals of the sensors 2 and transducer are according to one in the Fig. 3 processed algorithm for generating an output signal. The output signal is an electrical signal and provides the current value for a valve 1.5 of a control block, not shown. The valve 1.5 releases a valve cross-section as a function of the current value, the current value being proportional to the released volume flow 7. With the insertion or discharge of hydraulic fluid, the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 is moved. The speed of the lifting movement is proportional to the released volume flow 7. The lifting movement of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 corresponds to a compensating movement with respect to the roadway excitation 4.1 and equipment excitation 4.2. Which while in the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 adjusting pressure 8 is detected again by means of the pressure sensor 2.3 and the control unit 6 is supplied. The external stimuli 4 not erased by the control unit 6 of the construction machine 1 are detected by the acceleration sensor 2. 1 as acceleration 5 and supplied to the control unit 6 again. This closes the control loop.

Mittels dieser Regelstrategie unter Verwendung zuvor beschriebener Komponenten kann eine gegenphasige Bewegung des Hydraulikzylinders 1.4 generiert werden, um die äußeren Anregungen 4, wie z.B. die Fahrbahnanregung 4.1 oder die Ausrüstungsanregung 4.2, zu kompensieren.By means of this control strategy using previously described components, an out-of-phase movement of the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 can be generated in order to control the external excitations 4, e.g. the roadway excitation 4.1 or the equipment excitation 4.2, to compensate.

Fig. 3 zeigt die Signalstruktur der Vorrichtung zur Bewegungstilgung. In die Regelungseinheit 6 wurde ein Algorithmus zur Verarbeitung der Eingangssignale implementiert. Die Regelungseinheit 6 weist drei Module 12, nämlich den "active-ride-compensator" 12.1, den "boom-position-compensator" 12.2 und den "load-compensator" 12.3, auf, wobei jedes Modul 12.1-12.3 mindestens ein Eingangssignal verarbeitet und ein entsprechendes Ausgangssignal erzeugt. Fig. 3 shows the signal structure of the device for Bewegungsstilgung. In the control unit 6, an algorithm for processing the input signals has been implemented. The control unit 6 has three modules 12, namely the "active-ride-compensator" 12.1, the "boom-position-compensator" 12.2 and the "load-compensator" 12.3, wherein each module 12.1-12.3 processes at least one input signal and generates a corresponding output signal.

Das Modul "active-ride-compensator" 12.1 verarbeitet das Signal vom Beschleunigungssensor 2.1 und bestimmt den notwendigen Steuerstrom 9 für das Ventil 1.5, um eine kompensierende Zylinderhubbewegung zu veranlassen. Die erfasste Beschleunigung wird mittels eines Verstärkungsgliedes verstärkt und in Abhängigkeit eines gewählten Dämpfungsmodus 11 mittels einer Interpolationsfunktion in ein Signal gewandelt. Die Interpolationsfunktion wird jedoch erst durch ein generiertes Signal des nachfolgend beschriebenen "load-compensator" 12.3 aktiviert.The module "active-ride-compensator" 12.1 processes the signal from the acceleration sensor 2.1 and determines the necessary control current 9 for the valve 1.5 to cause a compensating cylinder stroke. The detected acceleration is amplified by means of a gain element and converted into a signal as a function of a selected damping mode 11 by means of an interpolation function. However, the interpolation function is activated only by a generated signal of the load-compensator 12.3 described below.

Die Dämpfungsmodi 11, Kabinendämpfung 11.1 und Schaufeldämpfung 11.2 enthalten unterschiedliche mathematische Transferfunktionen, die einzeln oder im Zusammenwirken aktiviert werden können. Das generierte Signal für den Steuerstrom 9 wird unmittelbar vor Verlassen des Moduls 12.1 verstärkt. Die im Ventil 1.5 vorhandene Überdeckung wird ferner durch einen Zusatzanteil 6.6 des Steuerstroms 9 kompensiert.The damping modes 11, cabin damping 11.1 and blade damping 11.2 contain different mathematical transfer functions that can be activated individually or in cooperation. The generated signal for the control current 9 is amplified immediately before leaving the module 12.1. The overlap existing in the valve 1.5 is further compensated by an additional portion 6.6 of the control current 9.

Dem "boom-position-compensator" 12.2 wird das Signal zugeführt, welches die Lage 10 des Hubgerüstes 1.2.1 repräsentiert. Dieses Signal wird durch am Hubgerüst 1.2.1 angeordnete Winkelsensoren 2.2 erfasst. Zum Zeitpunkt der Aktivierung der Dämpfungsfunktion speichert das System die aktuelle Lage 10 des Hubgerüstes 1.2.1 als Referenzposition. Bei Lasteintrag in die Schaufel 1.2.2 des Arbeitsgerätes 1.2 verändert sich der Anstellwinkel, wobei sich die Lage 10 des Hubgerüstes 1.2.1 verändert. Diese Winkelposition wird vom Winkelsensor 2.2 erfasst und im "boom-position-compensator" 12.2 mit der Referenzposition verglichen. Die Abweichung der Winkelposition von der Referenzposition wird durch einen PID-Regler 6.1 verarbeitet und nachfolgend durch ein als Begrenzer ausgebildetes Übertragungsglied 6.4 weiter verarbeitet. Der PositionsRegler spricht dabei erst an, wenn die Lage des Hubgerüstes einen zulässigen Bereich verlässt. Das vom PID-Regler 6.1 generierte Signal und vom Begrenzer beschränkte Signal nunmehr wird zum generierten Signal des "active-ride-compensator" addiert.The boom-position-compensator 12.2 receives the signal which represents the position 10 of the mast 1.2.1. This signal is detected by arranged on the mast 1.2.1 angle sensors 2.2. At the time of activation of the damping function, the system stores the current position 10 of the mast 1.2.1 as a reference position. When load entry into the blade 1.2.2 of the implement 1.2 changes the angle of attack, wherein the position 10 of the mast 1.2.1 changed. This angular position is detected by the angle sensor 2.2 and compared in the "boom-position-compensator" 12.2 with the reference position. The deviation of the angular position from the reference position is processed by a PID controller 6.1 and subsequently processed by a designed as a limiter transmission element 6.4 on. The position controller only responds when the position of the mast leaves a permissible range. The signal generated by the PID controller 6.1 and limited by the limiter signal is now added to the generated signal of the "active-ride-compensator".

Der "load-compensator" verarbeitet die Signale des Drucksensors 2.3, der im Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 angeordnet ist. Der Druck im Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 indiziert den Füllungsgrad der Schaufel 1.2.2 bzw. die Druckkraft, die durch das in der Schaufel 1.2.2 befindliche massebehaftete Gut auf den Hydraulikzylinder 1.4 aufgebracht wird. Die Signale des Drucksensors 2.3 werden mittels eines Übertragungsgliedes gewandelt, anschließend durch ein Verstärkungsglied verstärkt und nachfolgend mittels eines Tiefpassfilters verarbeitet. Der Tiefpassfilter filtert nur den stationären Anteil des Signals heraus, der proportional zur Schaufellast bzw. Schaufelfüllung ist. Das generierte Signal wird nun dem "active-ride-compensator" zugeführt und aktiviert in Abhängigkeit der Größe des Signals die bereits erwähnte Interpolationsfunktion. Die Interpolationsfunktion beinhaltet die Bestimmung der Reglerparameter des "active-ride-compensators" in Abhängigkeit der Schaufellast.The "load-compensator" processes the signals of the pressure sensor 2.3, which is arranged in the hydraulic cylinder 1.4. The pressure in the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 indicates the degree of filling of the blade 1.2.2 or the pressure force which is applied to the hydraulic cylinder 1.4 by the mass-loaded material located in the blade 1.2.2. The signals of the pressure sensor 2.3 are converted by means of a transmission element, then amplified by a gain element and subsequently processed by means of a low-pass filter. The low pass filter only filters out the steady state portion of the signal which is proportional to the bucket load or bucket charge. The generated signal is now the "active-ride-compensator" supplied and activated depending on the size of the signal, the aforementioned interpolation function. The interpolation function includes the determination of the controller parameters of the "active-ride-compensator" as a function of the blade load.

Mit der beschriebenen Vorrichtung und dem Verfahren zur Bewegungstilgung bei Baumaschinen 1 konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass sich die Kabinenbeschleunigung 5 von Baumaschinen 1 bei Fahrbahn- und Ausrüstungsanregung 4.1, 4.2 gegenüber passiven Bewegungs-Tilgungs-Systemen in einem definierten Frequenzbereich wesentlich verringert. Messungen haben gezeigt, dass mit Zunahme der Schaufellast sich zudem die relative Bewegungstilgung noch erhöht. Zusammenfassend kann festgestellt werden, dass das erfindungsgemäße Bewegungs-Tilgungs-System die Maschinenstabilität nachhaltig verbessert und eine bessere Lenkbarkeit der Baumaschine 1, vor allem bei höheren Fahrgeschwindigkeiten, sichert.With the described device and the method for Bewegungsstilgung in construction machines 1 could be demonstrated that the cabin acceleration 5 of construction machines 1 at roadway and equipment excitation 4.1, 4.2 compared to passive motion-eradication systems in a defined frequency range significantly reduced. Measurements have shown that with increasing bucket load, the relative movement repulsion still increases. In summary, it can be stated that the motion-eradication system according to the invention sustainably improves the machine stability and ensures better controllability of the construction machine 1, above all at higher speeds.

    a. Registration of the acceleration signal through the accelerator sensor (2.1) while the construction machine travels,
    b. Selection of a damping mode from several adaptable damping functions stored in the active ride control (6) to minimize the acceleration (5) of the cabin (1.1) and/or to minimize the acceleration (4.2) of the bucket (1.2.2),
    c. Processing of the acceleration signal as input parameter by the control software of the active ride control (6) and measurement of the control current (9) for the valve (1.5) based on the selected damping mode as output parameter for damping the displacement, and
    d. Supplying the hydraulic cylinder (1.4) with hydraulic fluid via the valve (1.5) based on the control current (9).
  2. Method for damping a displacement according to claim 1, characterized in that a control current (9) for the valve (1.5) is measured by the active ride control (6) after a first damping mode to affect maximum damping of the cabin (1.1), or after a second damping mode to affect maximum damping of the bucket (1.2.2).
  3. Method for damping a displacement according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the damping mode is selected by the operator of the construction vehicle (1).
  4. Method for damping a displacement according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the election of the damping mode is triggered automatically based on the fill level of the bucket (1.2.2).
  5. Method for damping a displacement according to claim 4, characterized in that for the measurement of the fill level of the bucket a pressure sensor (2.3) mounted inside the hydraulic cylinder (1.4) is used whose pressure signals are transferred to the active ride control (6) to select the optimum load-based damping mode.
  6. Method for damping a displacement according to any of the preceding claims 1 to 5, characterized in that in addition, the position (10) of the bucket (1.2.1) measured by an angle sensor (2.2) is also transmitted to the active ride control (6) in order to compensate inadmissible lifting movements of the hydraulic cylinder (1.4).
  7. Method for damping a displacement according to any of the preceding claims 1 to 6, characterized in that a distinction is made between a pressure level operating point and/or the travel speed.
  8. Device for damping the displacement of a self-driven construction vehicle without suspension (1), in particular a wheel loader with a cabin (1.1), a bucket (1.2.2) driven by means of a hydraulic cylinder (1.4), a hydraulic source, a controlled valve (1.5) for supplying the hydraulic cylinder (1.4) with hydraulic fluid, at least one accelerator sensor (2.1) and an active ride control (6) with a control software, characterized in that the active ride control (6) offers several adaptable damping functions to minimize the acceleration (5) of the cabin (1.1) and/or to minimize the acceleration (4.2) of the bucket (1.2.2) and is designed to process the signals of the sensor (2) by means of the control software as an input signal and to determine a control current for the valve as output parameter for a compensating movement of the hydraulic cylinder (1.4) based on the damping mode selected from the damping functions stored in the active ride control (6).
  9. Device according to claim 8, characterized in that the ride control (6) provides at least one damping mode to affect maximum damping of the cabin (1.1) and a second damping mode to affect maximum damping of the bucket (1.2.2).
