Description
Summary:This paper proposes a sliding mode synchronous control approach to enhance the position synchronization performance and anti-interference capability of a double lifting point hydraulic hoist. Building upon the cross-coupling synchronous control method, a coupling sliding mode surface is formulated, incorporating the single-cylinder following error and double-cylinder synchronization error. Additionally, a sliding mode synchronous controller is devised to ensure the convergence of both the single-cylinder following and synchronization error. The hyperbolic tangent function is introduced to reduce the single-cylinder following error and the buffeting of the double-cylinder synchronization error curve under sliding mode synchronous control. The simulation results show that the synchronization accuracy of the sliding mode cross-coupling synchronization control in the initial stage of the system is 53.1% higher than that of the Proportional-Derivative (PD) cross-coupling synchronization, and the synchronization accuracy in the steady state of the system is improved by 90%. The designed synchronous controller has better performance under external disturbances.
