An energy-saving control strategy for wheel loaders is proposed in this paper to address the issue of high energy consumption during their operation. The strategy is based on the intelligent identification of working stages, allowing for staged power matching and resulting in reduced energy consumption. Each work stage of the loader is identified by matching it to the main pump pressure waveform and actuator pilot pressure waveform. Using a sliding time window method, pressure waveforms from each working stage are subjected to feature extraction. A bidirectional long short-term memory neural network (BILSTM) algorithm is then used to establish an intelligent recognition model. Based on work stage identification, an energy-saving control strategy based on power matching is proposed for the shoveling stage of the loader, and the Grey Wolf optimization (GWO)-PID algorithm is utilized for control parameter tuning. Finally, the effectiveness of the energy-saving control strategy based on work stage identification is verified through experiments. The research results indicate that the BILSTM recognition model outperforms other models with a recognition accuracy of 96.1%. The optimal time window width is 0.6 s, and the proposed energy-saving control strategy achieves a fuel-saving rate of 6.81%. This method provides feasibility for reducing energy consumption in construction machinery and achieving energy-saving and carbon-reduction goals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
