The static condition is that the vehicle speed is less than or equal to a vehicle speed threshold value, and the vehicle speed threshold value can be 0-5 km/h.
Before loading or unloading, if the absolute value of the height difference is larger than a second threshold value (D _ val2), firstly carrying out quick adjustment and then carrying out stability adjustment to keep the height of the vehicle body in a stable interval;
if the absolute value of the height difference is smaller than or equal to a second threshold value and larger than a first threshold value (D _ val1), performing stability adjustment to keep the height of the vehicle body in a stable interval;
and if the absolute value of the height difference is smaller than or equal to a first threshold value, not adjusting the height of the vehicle body.

and when the absolute value of the height difference is larger than the second threshold value and the duration is larger than or equal to the set time, performing stability adjustment to stabilize the height of the vehicle body.
Specific applications are detailed below:
when the platform height calibrating device is used for the first time, the platform height (namely the target height) needs to be calibrated firstly, the platform height is calibrated at one time, the platform height does not need to be calibrated again as long as the platform field for loading and unloading vehicles is fixed and does not change, and the platform height is calibrated for the first time continuously subsequently. If the platform site changes, only one recalibration is needed.
Platform height calibration has two modes: the first measurement platform is set by the digital keys of the remote controller; the second method is to visually observe the alignment of the vehicle body and the platform through the ascending and descending keys of the remote controller and press the setting of the memory M key.
The system is capable of memorizing two different platform heights, a typical application scenario being different platform heights where the vehicle is traveling in two places on a fixed route A, B.
The height keeping control method consists of three parts of quick adjustment, stability adjustment and independent left and right double-error-zone adjustment, and has two combination modes:
the first combination mode is as follows: the method comprises the steps of quick adjustment, stability adjustment and independent left-right double-error-zone adjustment, and when the difference between the height of a platform (target height) and the actual height of a vehicle body is large in a quick adjustment range, most application scenes generally adopt the adjustment control mode.
The second combination mode: the method is characterized by comprising the following steps of stability adjustment and independent left-right double-error-zone adjustment, wherein when the difference value between the platform height (target height) and the actual height of a vehicle body is in a stability adjustment range, the adjustment control mode is adopted.
The specific control strategy is as follows:
quick adjustment and stability adjustment refer to the method by which the system automatically adjusts each time the vehicle is aligned with the dock.
The independent left-right double-error-zone adjustment refers to a method for automatically adjusting the system when the height of the vehicle body changes in the loading or unloading process.
a) And quickly adjusting: the vehicle comes to the commodity circulation garden, inputs platform height, target height promptly, and the actual height of system real-time detection automobile body when actual height and target altitude difference (being altitude difference) > D _ val2, adopts PD quick adjustment, and quick adjustment automobile body height makes the automobile body height be close to the stability control interval.
b) And (3) stability regulation: and when the height difference value is less than or equal to D _ val2, considering the nonlinearity of the air suspension system and the time delay condition of the control system, adopting PID stability adjustment, and stopping adjustment until the height difference value is less than or equal to D _ val 1. The PID can meet the requirements of system regulation precision and system control smoothness.
c) Independent left and right double error band adjustment: after the quick adjustment and the stability adjustment are completed, it is indicated that the vehicle body is aligned with the platform at this time.
Next, the height adjustment control of the loading or unloading process is started, if the unloading is reduced along with the goods, the height of the vehicle body is gradually increased, if the loading is increased along with the goods, the height of the vehicle body is gradually reduced, in order to solve the problem that the height of the vehicle body is changed a little, the system immediately starts to adjust, and in order to prevent the problem that the system is too sensitive, the repeated adjustment, the back-and-forth shaking and the oscillation are caused, at the moment, an independent left-right double-error-band adjusting method is adopted, and the specific strategy is as follows:
1) and when the height difference D _ val is less than or equal to D _ val2, the height adjustment control is not performed, and the current situation is maintained.
2) And when the height difference D _ val > D _ val2, starting timing, namely T, and when T is more than or equal to T _ delay, carrying out PID type height adjustment control, wherein the adjusted target height is D _ val1, namely, the actual height of the vehicle body is controlled within the range of D _ val 1.
The parameters are as follows:
target height: h _ act, the output of the altitude decision module.
Actual height: h _ tgt, the output of the signal monitoring and processing module.
Height difference: d _ val ═ H _ act-H _ tgt.
Error 1: d _ val1, typically may take 3 mm.
Error 2: d _ val2, typically may take 8 mm.
Control delay threshold: t _ delay, which can be 60s in general
Injecting;
D_val2>D_val1。
d _ val2, D _ val1 and T _ delay are all standard quantities, and specific parameter values are determined according to vehicle types.
The other function of independent left and right double-error band adjustment is used for independently adjusting and controlling the heights of the left and right automobile bodies respectively, so that the automobile bodies are kept in a basically horizontal balance state. In the loading or unloading process, when cargos in the carriage are uneven, the left and right bearing of the axle is different, the left and right sides of the vehicle have height difference, and the safety performance of the vehicle is affected by the large height difference of the left and right sides.
