Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a safety load balancer by arithmetically commanding a changing speed of a position by a position of a load lift mechanism and its lift direction, and controlling the changing speed of the position of the lift mechanism in all action regions thereof. CONSTITUTION:A mode selecting part 23 is selected to a position mode side till load weight W is stored in a weight memory part 13. When a position command signal SA from a position command device 6 is input to a position arithmetic part 9 by operating an operating lever, a lift command signal XO for continuously smoothly changing a position of a lift mechanism 1 is output based on the position command signal SA output in accordance with a level of operational amount of the operating lever 7. In the lift mechanism 1, lift action is executed smoothly in a condition that a load 4 is suspended, and when the load weight W is stored in the weight memory part 13, the mode selecting part 23 is switched to a load balance mode side, so that a deviation between load weight WF and memory weight WK is taken in a deviation detecting part 14 to continuously change a target position of the lift mechanism 1 by inputting a deviation signal WR to the position arithmetic part 9.

2. Description of the Related Art A method for controlling this type of load balancing device is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 1-133900 (Method for controlling a load balancing device). This conventional device has three modes: a lever mode operated by speed command means, a position mode to memorize the weight of the load, and a balance mode to achieve an equilibrium state. The lever mode operates with the target value as the speed command signal, and the moment the speed command signal becomes small, the position control is performed using the current position of the lifting means as the target value and the weight of the load is memorized. When the weight is memorized, the device shifts to a balance mode in which it operates with the memorized weight as a target.

In the prior art, the position of the lifting means is included in the control loop only in the position mode for memorizing the weight of the load, and in the other two modes. The position of the lifting means is not fed back to the control, and even when the lifting means reaches the lifting limit, the speed at that time remains the same as the speed before reaching the lifting limit.
The lifting limit is reached at a fairly high speed, and while the load is still being lifted, the lifting means collides with its own mechanical operating limit or with surrounding structures and machinery, causing damage to not only the lifting means but also the load being lifted. It will give you quite a shock. For this reason, it is possible that the lifting means and the load being lifted may be damaged, and in some cases, the work may even be dangerous.

When the weight storage unit 13 stores the load weight W, the operation mode shifts from the position mode to the load balance mode, the mode selection unit 23 switches to the load balance mode, and the memory stored in the weight storage unit 13 changes. Aiming for weight WK,

Because of this control, the operator applies force F in the upward or downward direction to the load 4 suspended on the hanging device 5.
, the load detection signal WA from the load detector 11 increases or decreases, a deviation corresponding to the force F applied by the operator occurs between the stored weight WK and the loaded weight WF, and the position calculation unit 9 The target position is continuously changed according to the magnitude of the deviation, and a lift command signal X0 is outputted to the lift drive unit 19 of the lift mechanism 1, so that the lift mechanism 1 moves in the direction in which the force F is applied by the operator. Become. The speed of change in the moving position is based on the force F applied by the worker, (memory weight WK) - (loaded weight WF) = (force F applied by the worker)

The force F applied by the worker is subjected to a calculation corresponding to the change in position in the calculation section 18, and is multiplied by a certain gain constant, so that the speed of movement of the position of the lifting mechanism 1 is determined by the force F applied by the worker. The movement is proportional to the magnitude of the force F exerted by the worker, and the worker applies a small force F regardless of the weight W of the suspended load 4.
Now the load 4 can be raised and lowered.

When the mode selection unit 23 receives the position command signal S from the position command device 6 while operating in this load balance mode, the operator operates the operating lever 7 to operate the lifting mechanism 1. The system determines that the load balance mode has occurred, temporarily suspends operation in the load balance mode, and automatically changes to the position mode.

Furthermore, the position command signal S from the position command device 6
By re-memorizing the weight of the load 4 when it is no longer present, it is also possible to return to the load balancing mode. This is because if the weight of load 4 is incorrectly memorized when transitioning to load balancing mode, for example, the weight is often memorized with the worker's hand on load 4, and the weight of load 4 is If it is stored incorrectly, the lifting mechanism 1 will automatically start moving due to the deviation between the stored weight WK and the load weight WF even if the operator does not touch the load 4 at all. It is possible to rememorize the information, and it is also very effective in situations such as when you accidentally touch the control lever while operating in load balance mode.

It should be noted that during operation in the position mode and during operation in the load balance mode, the elevation command signal X0 from the position calculation unit 9 is stored in the position calculation unit 9 as the upper limit position and the lower limit position, respectively. Therefore, the position calculation unit 9 calculates the position change speed of the lifting mechanism 1 with respect to the moving direction and position over the entire area of the lifting mechanism 1, and as shown in FIG. By setting the characteristics, the speed of position change near the upper limit when ascending is limited, and the speed of position change near the lower limit during descending is limited.
