Problems solved by technology

If the control system of the industrial machine is not properly calibrated for the geometry of the installed bucket, the industrial machine may, for example, be unable to avoid collisions between the bucket and other parts of the industrial machine (e.g., booms)

Abstract

The invention refers to determining dipper geometry. A method of determining dipper geometry includes obtaining a first set of data associated with an industrial machine for a first orientation of the industrial machine, and obtaining a second set of data associated with the industrial machine for a second orientation of the industrial machine. The first set of data includes at least one of a first length associated with a hoist rope and a first angle associated with the hoist rope, and the second set of data includes at least one of a second length associated with the hoist rope and a second angle associated with the hoist rope. The value of the physical characteristic of the dipper is then determined based on the first set of data and the second set of data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to determining the geometry of a bucket mounted on an industrial machine such as a rope shovel. Background technique [0002] Industrial machines, such as electric rope or shovels, draglines, etc., include mounted buckets for performing excavation operations. In order to determine the location of the bucket (eg, the location of the bucket teeth), the control system associated with the industrial machine must be programmed or pre-configured taking into account the geometry of the bucket when determining its location. Such programming is typically performed manually by a service representative who manually enters into the system the dimensions associated with the bucket and other calibration parameters needed to determine the correct position of the bucket. Such a process is tedious and may vary from one industrial machine to another. For example, a particular industrial machine may be configured for use with a variety of ...
