| description | Loaders are widely used in the construction of earthworks for construction projects. Due to the large volume and mass of these machines, they have shortcomings such as low driving efficiency and high energy consumption. To address these shortcomings, this work applied eclectic drive technology to a loader’s traction system. A wheel electric drive system with a switched reluctance driver (SRD) was developed. The operating principle and basic structure of the SRD system were analyzed. A new voltage PWM-controlled strategy with dynamic adjustable turn-on and turn-off angles and a single conducting phase in a fixed period was developed. Then, an SRD simulation model was established in MATLAB/Simulink. A simulation of the working condition for the loader was performed. A test bench for the SRD was built and accordingly the transportation and operation conditions were tested. The corresponding speed–time curve of transportation and operation was obtained. Simulation and experiment results showed that the electric drive system with SRD had excellent responses to changes in torque and speed and adapted well to the various working conditions of the loader. The system could effectively traction the loader and verified the feasibility and applicability of the wheel electric drive system. |
