EXCAVATION CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HYDRAULIC EXCAVATOR
First Claim
1. An excavation control system for a hydraulic excavator, the excavation control system comprising:
- a working unit having a boom, an arm and a bucket, the boom being rotatably attached to a vehicle main body, the arm being rotatably attached to a front end of the boom, the bucket being rotatably attached to a front end portion of the arm;
a designed landform data storage part configured to store designed landform data indicating a target shape of an excavation object;
a bucket position data generation part configured to generate bucket position data indicating a current position of the bucket;
a designed surface data generation part configured to generate superior designed surface data and subordinate designed surface data based on the designed landform data and the bucket position data, the superior designed surface data indicating a superior designed surface corresponding to a prescribed position on the bucket, the subordinate designed surface data indicating a plurality of subordinate designed surfaces linked to the superior designed surface, the designed surface data generation part being configured to generate shape data based on the superior designed surface data and the subordinate designed surface data, the shape data indicating shapes of the superior designed surface and the plurality of subordinate designed surfaces; and
an excavation limit control part configured to automatically adjust a position of the bucket in relation to the superior designed surface and the plurality of subordinate designed surfaces based on the shape data and the bucket position data.

Abstract
An excavation control system includes a working unit having a bucket, a designed landform data storage part storing designed landform data, a bucket position data generation part that generates bucket position data, a designed surface data generation part, and an excavation limit control part. The designed surface data generation part generates superior and subordinate designed surface data based on the designed landform and bucket position data. The superior designed surface data indicates a superior designed surface corresponding to a prescribed position on the bucket. The subordinate designed surface data indicates a plurality of subordinate designed surfaces linked to the superior designed surface. The designed surface data generation part generates shape data based on the superior and subordinate designed surface data. The shape data indicates shapes of the superior designed surface and the plurality of subordinate designed surfaces. The excavation limit control part automatically adjusts position of the bucket.
