  • Patent number: 10605605
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a GNSS-INS vehicle attitude determination method based on a single antenna, including the steps as below: mounting a GNSS antenna at a centroid and in the center of the vehicle, and mounting the IMU measuring unit of the MEMS sensor on the steering shaft of the vehicle; obtaining the position and velocity information of the vehicle by means of the GNSS antenna, obtaining the heading angular speed information of the vehicle by means of the IMU measuring unit; calculating the attitude angle of the vehicle by means of the combination with accelerometer and gyroscope; calculating the heading angle of the vehicle based on the position, velocity, and heading angular speed of the vehicle. The method combines the advantages of the short-term high precision of the IMU gyroscope and the long-term high stability of the GNSS single antenna, so as to avoid the divergence phenomenon.

  • Patent number: 10330129
    Abstract: Disclosed is a hydraulic control valve assembly of automatic steering system for agricultural machine including a proportional directional valve (3). A balancing valve (1) is arranged between the proportional directional valve (3) and the steering cylinder. A first shuttle valve (2) is arranged between the proportional directional valve (3) and the balancing valve (1). The first shuttle valve (2) is positioned on one side of the proportional directional valve (3). An overflow valve (4) is positioned on another side of the proportional directional valve (3). The overflow valve (4) is connected to a second shuttle valve (6) and a logic valve (5) respectively. The hydraulic control valve assembly has a large control power, a rapid response, and is more suitable for the autonomous navigation operation of agricultural machine. Moreover, the system saves more energy, such that the autonomous navigation operation of agricultural machine is more stable.

  • Publication number: 20170350721
    Abstract: A method of updating an all-attitude angle of an agricultural machine based on a nine-axis MEMS sensor includes the following steps: establishing an error model of a gyroscope, an electronic compass calibration ellipse model and a seven-dimensional EKF filtering model, and setting a parameter vector corresponding to a vehicle motional attitude (S1); acquiring data including an acceleration and an angular velocity of a motion of vehicle, and an geomagnetic field intensity in real time (S2); calculating an angle, a velocity, position information, and a course angle of the vehicle by established error model of the gyroscope and the electronic compass calibration ellipse model(S3); data-fusion processing the angle, the velocity, the position information and the course angle of the vehicle by the seven-dimensional EKF filtering model, and updating a motional attitude angle of the vehicle in real time. The steps of the method have a small error, high precision, and reliability.
